Hmmm... That's very much like same as the problem I've been having with
Netscape-6 under the suse_linux-2.2 emulation on NetBSD-1.5F/i386!
I get a bit further with Netscape and can do most anything but browse
remote web pages (or ftp servers).
With Netscape-6 the error is:
Error loading URL http://www.netbsd.org/: 804b000d
and a pop-up dialog box claims (wrongly -- no packet is ever sent) that
the connection was refused.
I had JavaScript disabled at the time though ... I wonder what happens
with it enabled.... no difference, sigh....
It seems to be doing DNS queries though because it sits twiddling its
thumbs when I try to go to a remote site with slow DNS.... :-)
Maybe it's not the same problem at all.
