I am having the exact same problem as above.  I am running Red Hat 6, and
I removed netscape communicator and installed netscape navigator.  So to 
make my default desktop shortcut exec netscape-navigator instead of 
netscape-communicator, I edited the Applet_5.desktop file, and changed the line

Exec=/usr/bin/netscape-communicator
to
Exec=/usr/bin/netscape-navigator

And that works, but I can't figure out how to change the name of the link on
the desktop.  I tried changing

Name=Netscape Communicator
to
Name=Netscape Navigator

but it had no effect, even after I did a "Rescan desktop" from the right-click
menu.
