What's the password for my webspace?

Can I FTP using Netscape?
It is possible to FTP using Netscape, but the FTP support in Netscape was designed for downloading files from a server, not uploading files to a server, so this method is not recommended and using a separate FTP program is advisable.

In the location bar enter ftp://username:password@homepages.karoo.net replacing username and password with your given username and password as detailed above, and press return. You can now select upload file from the file menu, select the file you want to transfer from your hard drive, and it will upload it for you. Netscape will then update the directory listing, so you can see the file has transferred correctly. The main problem with this route is that as it occasionally seems to change file names into all upper case (for PC users), you may have to make sure your links are in upper case. You also cannot rename or delete files you have uploaded.
