Web based email crashing

[Randy Souther]

Has anyone been experiencing the problem of web based email crashing
their computers? We are seeing this very frequently on our public
workstations. They are a combination of Win95 and 98, Navigator 4.08 and
IE 5. The crashing I've seen is mostly with Hotmail and Yahoo Mail. It
seems to happen only when someone is composing a message, and only when
it is a long message. Not only the browser crashes, but the whole
computer. Any ideas for fixes would be appreciated.
