I have had Netscape eat all available RAM from: 1. Poorly written Java Applets - there are a kazillion out there. 2. Poorly written plug-ins - I was the author of this one. My favorite browser is Lynx but my wife & kids use Netscape. Besides the two problems I mentioned, it works well. I use NS4.07 on an i486 with 24MB of RAM under RedHat 5.2.
