Netscape crashes under NT, con't

Thanks Spots.

My experience is that a crash of one Netscape window under NT _always_ brings down all the other apps, but never once has crashed the whole system.

I think you probably rightly inferred that I was mistaken about how NT handles seperate program instances. I was hoping there was a way to handle 32-bit programs under NT like one can handle 16 bit programs under OS/2--either under one "virtual dos machine" for a whole set of instances, or a seperate VDM per instance (which could be very handy if one had enough memory.)

I suppose this is probably what NT does in fact do with 16-bit programs via the sep mem spaces checkbox...

I guess the better strategy may be to use one browser for critical windows and other for casual ones, tho that is not the solution I'd prefer.
