You can download old versions of Netscape from 
http://browsers.evolt.org/ and test your site yourself.

In NN4.8, your logo and nav bar are completely gone.  I'm guessing NN 
doesn't like the a#logo:link selectors you have.  I would consider 
rebuilding your nav bar as a list with floated <li>s rather than 
positioning each link absolutely.  I would also use real text on the 
buttons and just use borders and background images to create the rest of 
the buttons.  See Listamatic for a variety of list styling techniques:

Some of these lists will not work in NN, but I'm sure you can find a way 
to feed NN some simple styling that will work.
