I think it's always been like that; at least, I can't remember a time when it wasn't. But then again, I've got notoriously bad memory :) There are better browsers out there... -Richard On Thu, Nov 15, 2001 at 11:38:50AM +, j mckitrick wrote: > > I'm running NS 4.78 under 4.4-stable, and I'm noticing something I don't > remember seeing before.

Constantly, and with every version of Netscape I can recall using in a heck of a long time, under Linux or FreeBSD. :( I always figured it was a Nutscrape thing. -- Greg White To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message

Netscape multitasking less smoothly?
I'm running NS 4.78 under 4.4-stable, and I'm noticing something I don't remember seeing before. When running NS in multiple windows, the app will lock up if one of the windows is bogged down. In other words, if window A has loaded its page, and Window B is waiting for more data, Window A becomes blank and unresponsive until the deadlock in B is released. Maybe it has always been this way, and I am just now stressing the system to that point with multiple windows, but I do not recall this happening under 4.76. Has anyone else had a similar experience? jm -- The early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.
