Hi Rob, The weird thing is that I use Netscape since forever, and it has never done so weird before. It just did it this time. I have set the startup page to 'none', so it loads fairly quickly. Must have been something goopy that I did while working on my webpages and checking them through NS. I am going to take a look at Opera too, that one seems to be a neat program also.

[newbie] Netsc-rash?
Hi all, I have a strange thing going with netscape. It crashed on me, so I killed all remaining processes. Did not work, the window is painted partially and then it hangs again. I rebooted, same thing. When I run netscape as root, then there's no problem, the whole thing just loads without any problem. So it can't be the program itself, there must be some stupid setting that collapsed. I also renamed the ~/.netscape folder and restarted things, but even that did not help. Does anyone have an idea what I could try next? Paul -- Press any key to continue.
