I give up. I've reinstalled Netscape totally but it's still goofy. But my mail client is back. So I'll be using Netscape for mail only and IE for everything else. Do you know how hard it is for me to surrender to IE? Oh the pain, oh the agony. And to confirm Jemima's diagnosis that my computer is sick (and it makes sense, as the one-year warranty just, just ran out), Adobe went nuts this morning and now both the crop and eraser tools refuse to work. So time to go uninstall that and reinstall. Methinks it might be time to wipe the hard drive and reload with XP.
