Netscape shifted to an open-source development model.  The new platform
is called "Mozilla", and the current browser is called "Firefox".
"SeaMonkey" is the all-in-one browser, mail program (the stand-alone
mail program is "Thunderbird"), web editor and kitchen sink.

I think they may still be producing a Netscape "branded" version as
well.
