if it's 4-5 minutes, it's almost certainly a network thing. perhaps netscape
is looking for a proxy? try this:
$ mv .netscape dot-netscape # move .netscape directory to something else
$ netscape # run netscape
see if that helps. if not, i'll give you instructions on how to use strace.
if it does work, move your bookmarks and personal plugins into the new
directory and erase dot-netscape.
