I think I have determined that the bookmark-rearranging crashes are a
hard (non-intermittent) bug in Netscape's code:
It can't seem to handle updating the Bookmarks Properties window if you click

Hi everybody,
Ever since upgrading to the 2.2.x Kernel, I have had strange things
happening with my modem. It is a NewComm 33.6Kbps ISA PnP Fax/Modem (now
that's a mouth full).
I have isapnp set up correctly to initialize the modem, and I know it
works as the modem still dials out and connects.
I was messing around with wmakerconf and when I clicked on the menu tab
it asked me if I wanted to convert my current menu, and I said yes. So
it tried, and came up with an error, and next thing I knew my menu was
gone. I was able to put most of it back manually by including the
debian menu, but
In case anyone else ever needs it, I finally found the Netscape
bug-reporting form, at http://help.netscape.com/forms/bug-client.html.
(Tomorrow I'll see if I can check if the bug appears on Solaris.)

email (both local and virtual), corporate websites, personal websites, ftp, and
