Kevin, How much memory do you have in the workstations ?
I've seen similar things happen when there isn't much ram available. 32mb seems pretty good. Anything less than that, I'd turn on NFS-Swap as a safety net. But, my experience with browsers in general on linux is that they all suck. It is just a matter of which one sucks the least. I'm currently using Mozilla 0.9.9 which is the best i've found so far, but it still isn't perfect. Is there anything in common about the web pages you are going to ? I've seen java and javascript pages cause all kinds of problems with browsers. You might try disabling both java and javascript, just to see if it is any more stable.
