Description Atanas Kolev 2000-01-24 08:41:01 UTC 
Netscape is frozen and takes 100% CPU.

I have upgraded to Netscape 4.7, randomly it is frozen , usually when
downloading , CPU load is going 100% and only kill -9 stops it.

It does this sometimes. :( It's been reported to netscape, no fixes
yet.

One thing that is known to help is redirecting netscape to
use a local proxy server, such as squid.
