Netscape crashes with Javascript

I've tried all of the font path fixes and it doesn't help. Get an account
at intranets.com -- it's free. Next go to the "Group Documents" section and
create a few folders. Next try to expand/collapse these folders. After a
few expands/collapses, the browser will crash. This happens on other sites
as well. We have 6 copies of RH 6.1 running on new Dells as well as workers
offsite with various hardware that have the same problem. Looks like a
javascript bug. No problems on Windows (:?)).

I've also tried the fix on this page
http://members.ping.at/theofilu/netscape.html to no avail.

RH tech support said this was a known bug. What does this mean? I've not
seen any open bugs in bugzilla that address this problem.

Thanks in advance.

There is unfortunately nothing we can do to fix Netscape - I suggest you try the
latest errata, 4.77-0.6.2, as this fixes numerous issues and quite possibly this one
