What did you do in Netscape before you did nothing? Um, that is, what is
the last action you recall taking in the Netscape window, be it pulling
down a menu, clicking a link, or whatever?
This is a nasty one. I get it about twice a year and it apparently has to
do with dialog management and Netscape trying to clean up after itself
incorrectly. That's my best guess so far, anyway. I would love to be able
to pin it down.
