subject: Netscape & WinOS/2

Greetings,
        For the previous six months, I had Netscape 2.02 for Windows running 
under WinOS/2.  Unfortunately, my hard drive "hiccupped" just as OS/2 was 
writing it's INI file and I lost it.  I ended up re-installing OS/2 because 
of a new sound card (ESS 1868) that I purchased.  Now, for whatever reason, I 
can not figure out how I managed to get Netscape running in WinOS/2.  It 
simply will not run even though I *know* that it will run because I've had it 
running previously.  8-)
        If anyone would be so kind as to give details instructions on how to 
get Netscape 2.02 for Windows running under WinOS/2 (Warp 4.0), I'd be very 
appreciative.
        Now, before anyone says, "Why bother?", I find that Netscape/2 
expands my swap file and the swap file does *not* shrink afterwards.  I also 
find that Netscape/2 seems to run a little slower than the Windows version.  
I have to admit that I'm beginning to appreciate Netscape/2, but the swap 
file problem is annoying, especially since I do have 48 Megs of memory on my 
system.
        Thanks for any ideas or help!
                                                Victor
