I think netscape 4.0x has a memory leak. I'm using 4.03 (obtained
quite some time ago directly from Netscape) and the longer it runs the
more memory I find in use. I've got 32MB of RAM and 40MB of swap, and
the only thing I ever do that causes it to swap is run Netscrape. If I'm
browsing for a couple of hours, looking at a lot of sites, it'll go
10-20 megs into swap even though it may not be using ANY swap when it
starts up.
