I also have been having problems of this type with Moz on my 
Warp4/FP12/SDDse system.  If I'm quick, an attempt to kill Mozilla 
with Watchcat is sometimes succesful. Otherwise, the system hangs and 
I have to C-A-D. I have just switched over to the full trial version 
of SDD to see if it helps eliviate this problem and so far, so good.

I noticed that there was a lot of extra disk access when loading up 
mozzila the first time after a crash and reboot and it made me wonder 
if the bug is connected with the disk cache becoming full and that the
extra disk access at startup is the disk cache trash collection. I 
tried setting disk cache to zero so that it would never fill or have 
to be emptied but this didn't help. I have also tried using Smartcache
(incidently, with generally good results) but this also made no 
difference. I recently added Java 1.18 and the problem remained 
unchanged.

This bug is very annoying as Mozilla is otherwise brilliant for 
surfing. Top marks and big thankyou to all of the team working on OS/2
Mozilla.
