I know there are bugs in 4.6, per Netscape support, so you should
upgrade to 4.61.  The bugs are with handling javascript though.

I use Netscape both for my browser and email and it's rock solid, for
me.  I did have problems with Java until I properly set MOZILLA_HOME, so
Netscape could locate java40.jar.
