This has happened to me occasionally under various linux distros(Redhat, Debian, Slack...) for years. I believe it's a flaw with Netscape itself, rather than with a specific distro/package. When it happens, just kill off the runaway process andeverything comes back to normal =) Annoying, but Konqueror and Mozilla are getting REALLY close to replacing Netscape for just about everything. -b3
