Unfortunately, this wasn't it either. However, I switched back to
using Netscape 3 after 4 locked up and due to memory usage, but I'll
switch to using the newer version to see if that helps. Did you have
these things popping up with netscape 3, since in it's Netscape.ad it
does have the definitions.
! Netscape.ad --- app-defaults file for Netscape 3.01.

I'll try re-installing netscape 4.03b8 (or whatever it's called now),
and see if they persist today.
