[WEB4LIB] Shy Netscape

[Shirl Kennedy]

I've had the same problem in the past.  This document talks about the
problem when upgrading to version 4.51, but it may apply:

Also, look here:

Alas, if I remember correctly, the only way I was able to finally resolve
the problem was to uninstall Netscape and delete every fragment of it from
my HD, and then cruise through the registry on a search-and-destroy mission
of any mention of the program.
