I have been running Mosaic on my FreeBSD system for a while now. It
seems to run quite solidly, albeit somewhat slow. I wanted to try out Netscape,
so I ftp'ed the BSDI version of Netscape (because that was the version that
they suggested) and loaded it up on my FreeBSD system. It works most of the
time, however, it core dumps if I try to do a paste into the open URL window.
Does anyone know if there is a more stable version available out there? Please
email your responses.

Thanks in advance
Keith
