[thelist] Applets Exploding in Netscape 6.01 (update)

[sfmalo]

To all evolters who "held my hand" back in February when I first joined The
List, I wanted to give you an update to a problem that has "bugged" me for
months now ... and I subsequently bugged you all back then! Here was my
original message:

>Since I finally successfully launched Netscape 6.01 late Saturday evening,
I

Many of you responded with possible solutions and again I thank you ... and
thought you might be interested in what the solution was.

I just installed an update to my video driver because I've been having
problems with my I.E. 5.01 browser doing  a lot of "freeze ups" and crashing
recently (out of the blue). Well, by gum by golly, no more weird flashing
colors and flickering screen when applets start running in the Netscape 6.01
browser.

Groan.

Who'd of thunk.
