Okay, I'm using a PII 233MHz computer with 72 megs of 72 pin RAM, Netscape and IE are freezing, 1.5 gigs on my HD left and cable modem.
I have a feeling it has to do something with the caching of the browsers. I've tried re-installing them but no results. Please help me!!! I'm getting so frustrated when my computer, it's freezing at least 4 times in one night. Thanks.

Delete your history Delete tempory,recent and temp files. Delete netscape cache. Try regclean Defragment Does your computer scan the disk after a crash? If not do so. Check for odd winsock.dll that are not in the system folder. rename oldwinsock. Take shortcuts of programs in the startup folder that you do not want running all the time. I have my anti-virus,crash guard, quickres. I limit my Vcache by putting these lines in my system.ini [vcache] MinFileCache=4096 MaxFileCache=4096 You may already have the [vcache] In your system.ini just use these lines under. this will limit your 4megs you may want more I found 4megs works fine. Also you may want to fix the size of your WIN386.SWP file. It will keep it all in one place. And won't become fragmented. You can ajust your IE cache View, internet options, temporary files settings. Edit, preferences,advance,cache for netscape.
