I dont think this is the problem, I havent changed anything since last
night, I removed that netscape and installed the debian netscape, now Im
getting an error 
Warning:
Name: openOrBringUpBrowser
Class: Xfebutton
Creating an active drop site with no drop proc.
Error: Cannot perform malloc

does this sound like an error?
