let's see if i can remember how to do this.
i feel the need to apologize for not updating the blog this past week.
you see, netscape 7.1 doesn't really like windows 98. in fact, it simply crashes it. and they don't tell you that when you're about to download this puppy.
so, here i am. a week later, but i'm now working with mozilla (which, btw, is not a good idea to install on top of the faulty netscape. keep that in mind when you try it at home).
so, to recap - if you find yourself in the same situation as i was last week, netscape freezes your windows and there's nothing to do but to reboot every fucking time. this is due to a resource leak that netscape creates and can't shut off.
here are some good starting points to solving your crappy combination:
resource leak - netscape 7.1
"netscape uses up all my resources"
what worked for me - delete as many superfluous programs from your taskbar as possible. they use up resources.
then open up your windows resource meter < start. programs. accessories. system tools. resource meter. >, this will become your best friend against computer-assisted suicide. this helps you understand how your resources are used.
i haven't had any problem with mine since i did my little clean-up. an extremely quick and easy solution to a supremely frustrating problem.

biggest news of the past week for me (that i don't really feel into great detail over) -- my brother surprised the hell out of me monday. he drove the fuck through canada for 3 days to come and see me :) we hadn't seen each other in well over 18 months. my mother just spent 10 days with him over there and she picked him up in montreal after she landed.
there's nothing like spending time with your brother to remind you about who you really are. great times, i tell ya. and a huge confidence booster for me.
the bands on the left (hey, look at me, i'm listening to emo) that have no album titles next to them are my brother's. they're cd-r's and they don't have titles on them so i don't know which album they are but i'm really liking tommy guerrero.
