The user program CRASHME that is available from some ftp-servers
crashes NS 3.0 in less than a second!!! That is the depressing 
result of my tests. It's a shame that NS hasn't been tested with
this in many magazines demonstrated user program. It produces
many different system exceptions that have to be handled properly
by the kernel...
After the crash you can't even reach NMI! You have to use 
<Command><Alternate>*.


Shame!!!

Jochen

P.S. NS 2.1 did the same.
