Could be a couple of things. If the page you are looking at has java on
it then there is some problems with the malloc routine in linux (thing
that grabs the memory for the program to use). Bu that normally produces
segmentation faults.

I think the most likely thing is that netscapoe is trying to lookup
www.netscape.com ip address. At which point it locks up untill your dns
resolver times out. Try leaving it for a few minutes, eventually it should
come back and report that the netscape sites are not available. I would
then change the default behavoir to start on a blank page. 

The dns stuff is all assuming you are not actually connected to the
internet when starting up netscape.

Just a couple of suggestions

Sorry if this has already been suggested, but the original article was
