I have a problem with Netscape ver. 4.72.
For nearly a year, I have been using Netscape 4.72 with WebWasher 3.0 successfully. Recently, however, WebWasher has gotten more and more unstable. It was freezing a lot whenever I download something while browsing in a window(or loading data into more than one window at a time) using my DSL. The last time I used this setup before today, I was downloading a large file and accidently closed all Netscape windows(shut the program down). This ended the download. When I loaded Netscape through WebWasher to start the download again, it gave an "invalid page fault" as soon as I typed in a URL.
Today, I tried to use the internet again using this setup, but it gave an "invalid page fault" error as soon as I typed in a URL! This was after several boot-ups(turn the computer off at night). Netscape must have a real problem connecting to WebWasher(as a proxy). I tried to use the browser with a "direct connection to the internet", but it just sat there like I had no internet connection while IE worked just fine.
I tried uninstalling WebWasher and installing Webwasher 3.2BETA to try to fix the problem, but it accomplished nothing.
So, unless you guys can help me fix my Netscape, I will have to download a new browser to replace it(since I don't have the Netscape installer program). THANKS!
