1. OFFTOPIC: Netscape 4.71 error

Hi all and thanks if you're reading this.

When I run Netscape Communicator 4.71 and add a
bookmark, a dialog comes up and says that bookmarks
have changed on disk and asks me if I want to reload
them with the option of OK or CANCEL.  If I click OK,
my bookmarks go back to how they were before the
change, clicking CANCEL leaves them alone.  ALso, if I
don't add/remove any bookmarks (which I don't have
any), when I exit Netscape, I get the dialog which
says, "Bookmarks have changed on disk and are being
reloaded."  That gives me the option of OK, and if I
click it, the bookmarks stay "as is."  I've tried
deleting BOOKMARK.HTM in my profile's directory, but
that just gave me a blank one with the same problems
of adding stuff as before.

WHY IS COMMUNICATOR DOING THIS TO ME ???

Thanks,
Mike Hurley

Cause Micro$oft told windoze to submarine netscape most likely. Cause
Netscape just went thru a major coporate and codebase upheaval possibly. I
don't use it,, i tried, and had too many problems. The puter is here for my
enjoyment/productivity, i'm not here for the operating system's enjoyment.

Thanks to everyone who tried to help.

I think the problem was a corrupt profile because of
Netscape locking up on me and my having to have
Windows shut it down.  I removed my old profile and
made a new one and problem solved!

Thanks,
Mike Hurley
