It doesn't seem to be the window manager affecting it. I was using Enlightenment, and I switched to WindowMaker suspecting that E was the problem. I discovered that it wasn't, and since you're having the same problems with IceWM, it looks to be WM independent. -- Matthew Gregan[EMAIL PROTECTED]

I was also having the problem with an earlier version (probably 4.51 or 4.5). well, since you are talking about netscapes: my communicator is getting wild sometimes too. for some unknown reason it starts eating up all cpu-time (as top tells me), and no soft way to kill this process will work. killing with -9 help. This behaviour is present to me since hamm/communucator 4.5/static (i didn't work before with debian), running with fvwm (now fvwm2). once i had a simmilar effect (a wild process, that didn't want to terminate either) with gtimer and without netscape. i noticed when trying to reach a newsserver with netscapes from behind a firewall, and the firewall wasn't configured well, this happened too. could there be a relation? gerhard
Re: Netscape 4.6 crashes
I'm running potato with potato's netscape 4.6 (smotif). Often, though not 100% consistently, Netscape will not exit properly when I do a File - Exit (Alt-Q) and/or click on the X widget to close the window. When I'm using version 4.51 or 4.6 of Netscape Navigator I've got this problem, too. Navigator 4.5 seems to work for me (which could be a coincidence, of course). The faulty behaviour is most obvious if you've got more than one Navigator window opened. Instead of closing the selected window only the whole application crashes sometimes. I'm using IceWM, but I don't think that this problem has something to do with the window manager. I'm really looking forward to a Gtk based version of Mozilla...
