This is because it crashed at some point, and left a lock file.

The lock file is actually under the Linux emulation tree, since there is
a 'root' directory there.  So look in:
	/emul/linux/root/.netscape

Yes, it is annoying. :) You might want to create a symlink that points
.netscape to /root like this:

# cd /emul/linux/root
# mv .netscape /root
# ln -s /root/.netscape .netscape
