Anybody know why Netscape 1.1N hangs my system (LC475 8/160, Sys. 7.5.1),
semingly at random moments, every few sessions?  Netscape is always in the
foreground when it happens, but not doing the same thing each time.  Sometimes
it even jams up on its title logo screen.  Eudora before the current Light
version used to do the same, usually from the background, but Eudora Light
seems OK.

In each case a Force Quit (command-option-escape) almost always solves the
problem cleanly, amazingly enough.

Please follow-up to demon.ip.support.mac and/or zynet.aupport.mac, or e-mail me
if you can't do that.  I promise to summarise to all three groups if I get any
answers.
