Netscape: Version 4.72
Symptom:
Netscape crashes if you access web pages using java script or
dialog boxes.
Cause:
Unfortunately Netscape Communicator 4.72 seems to be faulty here.
Solution:
You have two options:
- Disable the java script option of Netscape. As a consequence it
might happen that you can't view some web page anymore.
- Get an older version for Netscape from here:
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/6.3/suse/xap1/netscape.rpm
You can install that RPM with YaST. Please read chapter 3.4.9
"Installing packages" on how to do that.
Before you start this other version for the first time please delete
the directory .netscape in your home directory. Don't forget
to backup your bookmarks that can be found in that directory in the
file bookmarks.html.
