I used the utility called Service Center to view what software is registered
in my INI file and it lists a copy of Netscape. Maybe that is pointing to the
older Netscape V2.02 which I still have on disk too? How do I tell? The
strange thing is I've been using V4.04 without any known problems up until the 
point I started receiving this error message.
