[plug] Netscape now unreliable

[BillK]

I have just upgraded netscape to 4.74 on Mandrake 7.1 (using the built
in Mandrake Update) and suddenly have a real reliability problem.  The
previous version (4.73?) wasnt particularly good, especially compared to
whatever version came with MD 7.0, but was usable, now it seizes with
monotonous regularity (netscape-communicator process in runaway, doesnt
come back).  Running 3 or more NS windows open at a time is now
impossible.  Has anyone heard of any ideas/solutions as I cannot pin it
down.  In particular, has anyone with a similar setup have problems like
this?
