I see the same thing - in linux emulation.  Netscape7 actually uses
the ~/.mozilla directory to store the profile, not /compat/linux.  It
looks like it won't just open up another window.  I typically start
Netscape from a keystroke menu, but if I already have a netscape
browser open, I have to open new ones from existing browsers using the
little navigator icon or the CTRL-N keystroke.  Trying to open another
from the menu gives the message you described.
