This is strange since I cannot reproduce any of those crashes on my FreeBSD 2.2.1 system. I can run java applets in their own windows, I can view the document source, the whole enchilada. About the only way I can get netscape to crash is through some occasionally obscure fiddling in the news window, but that's about once every 4 months so I don't consider it any more crash-prone than most software. :-) Maybe the fact that I'm running at a depth of 24 bits has something to do with it? I'm also using the Xi Graphics server. -- - Jordan Hubbard FreeBSD core team / Walnut Creek CDROM.
