Could you verify that it is really the same bug? When it happens again
please do strace -p <pid of netscape>. When it is in a endless
write(.., "GET ...",..) = -EAGAIN loop it is the same bug. Note that older
netscapes (<4.0) may sometimes hang when the dns server is rather slow,
please make sure that it isn't that problem.
