I'm a Linux user and maybe it's just voodoo or amazing luck, but I find
Netscrape to be incredibly reliable...
I did briefly encounter a crashing spree, though, when I had xpm-3.4h
(and/or the version of the xpm library installed by the Red Hat Motif CD)
installed. This version of xpm would cause motif to wipe out whenever an
error dialog was being displayed.
So, if you're having netscape crashes, try upgrading to xpm-3.4i and the
problem might go away.
