But it does die frequently. It also complains about lack of a *netscape* "valid encryption policy", so, in perusing the netscape pages for information on how to set one, I keep crashing. For example, I found that attempting to load the pages http://home.netscape.com/assist/security/resources/notes.html http://home.netscape.com/assist/security/smime/datasheet.html crashes it reliably. Unfortunately, all the symbols have been stripped, so that I can't tell much about the cause. It tends to die at the same place, "0x6f8d71 in ??
