We are having lots of problems on Solaris using the Netscape browser and
Java applets. This is impacting the new BMC Browser based Console which
must support Solaris 7 and 8.

We are seeing the browser crashes or hangs when:

    1.Applets are unloaded/reloaded before the applets are initialized.
         Reproduce by rapidly clicking the links in the navigation frame.
    2.The browser window or the frames containing the applets is resized
         while the applets are loading.
         Reproduce by continually resizing the browser window or by dragging
         the vertical frame border to resize the content frame while the
         applets are loading.
         
Environment: Solaris 8 with latest patches, Netscape 4.76, JRE 1.4/1.3.1_03
