Well, there are two things I found:
a) When running Netscape 4.x, *do not enable Java* unless you *really*
have to! Not having Java enabled does wonders for Netscape's
stability, I found - on both Linux and Solaris.
b) Don't use Communicator but use the plain Navigator instead - saves
some vital space at times it seems, and most external mail- and news
programs are better anyway, IMO.
