I believe that the VM that came with one of the Netscape 4.5x's (for Windows) had a bug where it tried to do some palette initialization that went into an infinite loop when the screen was in True Color mode. I don't know which VM it was, exactly, and I don't know which browsers ship with which VMs, and I don't know what the installation process for a VM is, nor which apps other than browsers will load VMs (especially if you already have one). Sorry, I couldn't help more. I just wanted to give you a place to start looking for the problem, because a similar thing happened to me. I do know a lot about palettes on Windows, though. :)
