I got so tired of it I re-installed a windows 98 partition after I had to kill X 12 times in the course of 1 hour. REDHAT: If Netscape can't fix it is there any other bropwser you could distribute with 6.2? This is getting Real Old Real Fast! Quoting Jason Hirsch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > >

I have java and javascript turned off and netscape 4.71 or 4.72 doesn't crash on java-related site. However, my complain with netscape 4.71 is this. It sometimes (seems randomly) will go into this cpu-hungry mode and consume the cpu at nearly 100% for several minutes (usually 3 minutes or more). D
