I am doing that, rather than using the bug-tracking system, because I
tried the latter on a previous occasion and found it very hard to use.
I attach a log file.
NetSurf was working OK until a few days ago, when it took to crashing
when started. I am not aware of making any change to my system, which
is an Iyonix running RISC OS 5.11. (I am intending to install 5.16
soon but am deferring that until I have copied some applications and
data files to a new computer.)
At the time I thought the problem was with the particular website, but
I have now found that NetSurf crashes even when started by
double-clicking the application directory.
I have reinstalled the latest version. I have also moved
!Boot.Choices.WWW.NetSurf and allowed NetSurf to re-create that from
scratch.
None of that has made any difference.
