  Netscape Defrost is supposed to only work with Netscape v1.x. Version 2 &
above of Netscape is supposed to fix the problem. However, I've noticed that if
you're running other apps with Netscape that the chances of a freeze occurring
increases.

  Also, upgrading to Netscape v2.x takes care of an acknowledged problem with
directory corruption due to the way it writes cache files.
