Have you tried trashing the prefs file from your ~/Library/Preferences
folder?
That is the first thing to try when something like this happens.

What exactly is the last thing you see in the message window before the
crash?

You do realize that you will have less problems once you move on to
10.2.6? Not that this is the reason for the crash but you really should
avoid 10.1.x if possible.

Yes, you should do this but only if you are sure that it is not Mac
specific! 
I'm convinced from the info that this is a platform specific problem ;-)

Why did he not just come out and say that in the 1st place... I am not 
really sure how... I switched to Netscape 7 awhile ago and this must be 
default... Is this message any better... ????

I will try deleting the pref. file...

If that does not work i will record any and all relevant info...
The very last thing i see is the OS X "...application has unexpectedly 
quit" but before that i am not sure...
I will give it another go for the sake of development... =]

I would switch now but my school bookstore will not let me buy the new 
system because i dropped all my classes so technically i am not a 
CURRENT student... Buying the full priced system seems ridiculous 
because my school price is about half...

Also i am really waiting for OS "Panther" to come out this summer before 
i spend any cash... =]

Thanks... =]

Mind reading is an aquired talent and you may not be in tune
with Thorsten's mind yet. Just give it a bit more time...

Whatever you did fixed the problem. Thank you.

All the space inside my brain... What is left over from partying, 
banging against the desk in frustration, ect, ect... Is completely 
occupied... Sorry no vacancies at this time... Although we have 
beautiful accommodations there is just no more room for others... Check 
back at a later date... =]

i just told it to stop sending text and html together... in the news 
group i will have to remember to select "send text only"...

Seems to be fine now... I think it just wanted some attention...
I just reinstalled from a .sit file i burned earlier in the week that i 
downloaded a while ago and now it is fine...
Maybe you are right about needing to upgrade...

Of course it works, we had  no bug report at all for the current Carbon
version. :-)

Yes.
