Keep in mind, rather than using a Windows product, remember that crashes 
happen for a reason. If your system is not setup correctly crashes will 
happen more often. Running to Windows will not make your system more stable. 
In this particular case, just turn off Java when you goto whatever page it 
was that crashed it as all but the most recent versions of Netscape have been 
having problems with Java sites (Java site programmers tend to break rules to 
make sizzle instead of substance).
