There are numerous references to the once popular web browser Netscape by characters in the Homestar Runner body of work.

Appearances

Thorax Corporation — On their eMission Statement page, one of their instructions on how to go there include "Type in the Internet (1 for IE5, 2 for Nedscape)."
Homestar Runner's Website — The text at the bottom of claims the page is best viewed using "Nedscape 1.0 or lower".
Email virus — The broken JPEG symbol on Bubs' mouth is the same one used in Netscape, as well as in the web browsers Mozilla and Mozilla Firefox, which were based on Netscape.
Back Door Store Thank You Message — The page imitates Netscape and Mozilla's "missing plugin" placeholder.
Quote of the Week — An extended version of the theme song intro has the line "When email comes to town, I know, I know, it's like a netscape hurricane".
