There is a FreeBSD version of 4.07 which I've just found.

ftp://ftp3.netscape.com/pub/communicator/4.07/development/english/unix/freebsd/professional_edition/communicator-v407-export.x86-unknown-freebsd.tar.gz

Several of the other netscape FTP site only have the shipping versions
as do the two Australian mirrors I use normally.

I had several problems with old cached FTP results from my ISP's proxy.
It seems that many FTP sites have had the development directories for 4.07
in the past but not anymore.

Holding shift and pressing reload got the right page contents.

fetch was still getting incorrect info from the proxy but fortunately
my ISP does not block direct FTP so once I unset HTTP_PROXY, fetch worked
fine.

Woah... hold on a sec, chill out:
-rw-r--r--   1 ftp      ftp      9164045 Oct 05 20:37 communicator-v407-export.x86-unknown-freebsd.tar.gz

/pub/communicator/4.07/development/english/unix/freebsd/professional_edition


(I would like them to move it out of 'development' and into 'shipping',
and also tp make a 128bit version.
