%  I noticed this, too.  Did you find anything out ?

I saw a couple news posting regarding the same problem,
and posted solutions, but none of them worked for me.

The interesting thing is that once I circumvented the Navigator
from going directly to its home page by clicking one of
its "What's New" or "What's Cool" button, then go away to some
sites other than Netscape, and finally come back to Netscape's
home page.  If it didn't crash, then everything works fine
from there on.  Thereafter whenever Netscape is restarted,
it won't crash again.

It's very puzzling.  I don't know why this works.  But I
chanced upon it.  Hope it works for you as well.
