Patricia, 

We ran into a similar problem, and I think you're
encountering the same situation with your custom 404
page. Your 404 page references a linked style sheet
using 
"styles/win_style.css"

However, it needs to be
"/styles/win_style.css"

Otherwise, you get a real screwy effect when you enter
a bad URL for anything deeper than the root. Try

http://www.dummycomponents.com/foo/foo

to see what I mean in Netscape. IE just tends to hang.

Hope this helps.

Pete
