We have had this problem with NT workstations and Navigator 4.03.  Rebooting is the only solution we've found.  We haven't had it happen more than once a day on any given workstation, though.  In fact, the problem happens pretty sporadically-not often enough to be considered more than a nuisance.  If there is any pattern, I haven't spotted it.

Since rebooting fixes the problem, I would speculate that it's related to NT's use of RAM.  That's just a guess.  I don't think it's a Netscape problem, because we have observed the same behavior in NT's Calculator applet.  All of a sudden, the buttons don't work and rebooting fixes it.  I will say, however, that I haven't seen Calculator do it nearly as often as Netscape.  Those are the only two applications I've seen this happen with.
