When running NS in multiple windows, the app will lock up if one of the windows is bogged down. In other words, if window A has loaded its page, and Window B is waiting for more data, Window A becomes blank and unresponsive until the deadlock in B is released. Maybe it has always been this way, and I am just now stressing the system to that point with multiple windows, but I do not recall this happening under 4.76. Has anyone else had a similar experience? jm -- The early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.
