My machine also freezes up completly sometimes when using Mozilla, I am running Kondara 2.0(Redhat 7.1 base System) I have found that Mozilla trashes the system often if I right click a link and choose save, needless to say, I don't do this anymore! I have no idea why Mozilla can kill the OS. Seems bad an application run as non root can bring the OS to a halt. -- Cheers Tony。 --------------------------------------------------------------------- _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
