I noted this problem many times with navigator 4.61 (<=4.61-9) and
also with 4.7 (<=4.7-13). It most often happened, when I killed the
first window (where I opened many other windows from using the middle
mouse button). Only killing the last opened window was quite secure.

Because I never thought about the question, whether there is a key
binding for this :-)
Anyway, don't ask me, why I use this, but ask whether this doesn't
work with libc6.1 and a libc6 netscape, while it works with the libc5
netscape without problems and also with libc6.0 and libc6 netscape.

I don't want to change my behavior just to make netscape happy.
Netscape is a computer program and it's job is to make me happy. And
this is possible, because the libc5 version works without problems
here (except the fact, that I have to restart it at least once a week,
because it eats my memory).

I don't like a program to die, when I only close a window, especially
if other versions of this program (or of libc6) work without problems.
Tschoeeee
