Well, for more data, Netscape 4.61 in Red Hat 5.2 (glibc2.0) locks up
solid after no more than 2 or 3 seconds manipulating that applet. It's
the version downloaded from Netscape, no wrapper scripts, and I don't
use LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Kill -9 is the only escape. (Side note: pretty
pathetic that I've got a quick link to "killall -9 netscape" in my gnome 
panel. Speaks volumes about the robustness of the app.)
