IE4.5 may be stable but it has a host of behind the scenes bugs, It has

problems just rendering HTML correctly, you can not detect plug-ins on it

and It will not view swf files from the desktop.


are you using netscape 4.5? and the new version of Java you may also want o

dump you netscape pref's this may help the stability.
