I've noticed this on Solaris v2.6. It randomly did it but I also had issues
with Microsoft IE on Solaris. I think I added a Java plug-in from Sun which
helped my problem with Netscape. The Javascripting part
was another mystery. Has there been any testing with Netscape v4.75 on Linux
versus FreeBSD using Javascript and Java?!?
