I've seen this randomly, not just when reading news. I upgraded to 80
Megs of RAM a few weeks ago and haven't seen this since then (had 64
Megs before). No idea if they are related.

Yep -- this drives me nuts... I enter text in one block of a form, tab
to the next and I can't enter any text at all -- not even a new URL. If
I exit and restart Netscape, I may or may not be able to repeat the
process.
I haven't seen the rest of the problems (I don't use PPP). The tiny
font has been annoying as well.
