   How often is "too" often?  I use Communicator almost exclusively for
E-Mail (either that or the TWIG web-based mail program) and web browsing,
and I probably get a crash (nothing spectacular, just the program going
"poof" and disappearing) about twice a month.  Annoying, but not too bad.

   One question I'd have is whose binaries are you using?  I run Debian,
and a Debian maintainer packages up a custom version of Netscape, which is
what I'm running.  If you're Red Hat, I don't know if third-party binaries
are available, or what the *.deb files would do when run through alien and
installed, but it'd seem like it'd be worth a try.

   I've found myself starting to use Mozilla more and more and am trying
to convince myself to switch over to it completely.  I love the fact that
I can tell it to "reject all cookies (or graphics) from domain xxx.yyy". 
However, if stability is what you're looking for, Mozilla isn't ready for
prime time yet.

   If you're in a KDE2 environment, Konqueror (sp?) is a browser that's
pretty slick and is defintely worth looking at.
