I just tried installing the plugin. Perhaps because I don't have 
Netscape installed on my computer, the plugin installed just fine for 
Mozilla. (I'm using Moz 1.3a.) Based on my experience with other 
plugins, you should be able to copy the plugin (npexview.dll) from 
Netscape's plugin folder into Mozilla's plugin folder, normally 
C:\Program Files\mozilla.org\Mozilla\Plugins , assuming you're using 
Windows. Next time you start Mozilla, it should appear in the list of 
plugins.
