We ran into a similar situation running Netscape and a Java HTTP web
server on the same NT system. The Netscape browser was locking up
network or thread resources and preventing the server from responding to
the browser (or very slowly). If you lower the priority of the Netscape
browser (right click on Netscape in task manager), things then work
perfectly.
