Winamp 2

Netscape Winamp?

SUMMARY: Keep Netscape out of your Winamp title bar.

(Note that this tip is for an unsupported version of Winamp, version 2. For help on Winamp 5, visit Winamp 5 Help and Tips).

I recently installed Netscape on my system as a backup web browser. The upgrade went well. However, I was quite surprised to notice that as soon as I opened Winamp, it came up with a light-blue and light-gray look and was labeled "Netscape Winamp". I don't recall asking for this change!

If this happens to you, just right-click on the Winamp title bar, choose "Skins", then "Base Skin" (or another skin if you so prefer). Winamp should return back to normal.
