Note where netscape is on your path:
$ which netscape

# rpm -Uvh netscape-common-4.50-1.i386.rpm
netscape-communicator-4.50-1.i386.rpm
Get these from a nearby mirror: http://www.redhat.com/mirrors.html
or from ftp://contrib.redhat.com/libc6/i386

Yes.   If there is a problem, just symlink the new location of netscape

to the old location.   Or, just type netscape in an xterm.
