Myself and a few others are experiencing problems with Netscape 4.7.

We are all on physically different machines, with different OSs (NT, 98) but we all seem to be getting the same problem.

Over the last few months, I keep getting hangs while either downloading mail or mail containing web pages. All windows of NS that are open effectively hang either permanently, or for a long time (half an hour or more). On NT, I can't task switch, and attempts to kill the process are ignored/not handled. Try more than one kill attempt, and it hangs the task switcher.


Both NS, and the OS (including service packs) have been re-installed many times, and it keeps recurring.

Has anyone else got anything similar? Any ideas as to the cause? How about a diagnosis? I am reaching the end of my patience....
