G.G.,
I don't know if others have brought up this problem but "sending a web
page" tends to cause difficulties to my browser when I view them and am
NOT on-line at the time. Often Netscape will crash even with different
versions and settings.
Most people simply copy the web ADDRESS to refer to a site, that seems
to work very well.
If people experience this same problem please let us know so this may be
made aware to others.
Thanks... John
