Since I upgraded to Netscape 4.7, whenever I shut Netscape down, the program looks like it exits fine, but if I do Crtl+Alt+Del, Netscape is still running in the background. If I go to shut down Windows 98, Win 98 hangs on shutdown and I have to do Crtl + Alt + Del to end the Netscape program still running in the background. Any ideas?<br>
Thanks.<br>

Netscape (since banding together with AOL) now installs additional<br>
components along with Communicator, such as AOL Instant Messenger.<br>
Try to locate where these other activities are getting loaded, then delete<br>
them. <p>David J. Aller<br><a href=mailto:GoTech@GoTechnologiesInc.com>GoTech@GoTechnologiesInc.com</a><br><a href= Computer Systems & Networking Services</a><br>
 
I found myself having the same problem...if I let the system sit for a bit, the program would close with an &quot;end task&quot;...I was running 4.7 as well (and still am). however, I reloaded my system and the app as well and have had no further problems. Something I had thought about trying was uninstalling Netscape and then re-installing it...better yet, uninstall it and install 4.72....I think my problem popped up after downloading &quot;stuff&quot; still not sure though...
