>Description:
	Bring up Netscape 4.79 and clicking "stop" button while it is 
	loading the netscape home page (home.netscape.com), crashes the 
	system. The monitor goes blank and the monitor light (beside power
	button) starts blinking. i.e. no video signal
	Cannot even ping machine at this point.
	Pressing reset button on system brings it back up.

>How-To-Repeat:
	start up window manager (kde or ion)
	open shell, type in "netscape"
	while it is loading home page (home.netscape.com), click the "stop"
	button on the browser. System crashes. 
	Repeatable. Tried 3 times.

>Fix:

	Use mozilla or konqueror or other browser.
