I've been using Netscape 7.2 with no problems until about a week ago. At some sites, I now get this error message:
"Netscp has caused an error in NPSWF32.DLL. Netscp will now close." The only option that's given is OK, and then it closes.
Anyone know why this is happening, and if there is a cure? (I'm still using Windows ME.)

Thanks!

That's the Adobe ShockWave Flash plug-in. First thing I would try is to rename NPSWF32.dll to NPSWF32.old then go to Adobe and reinstall the flash plugin.

Thanks for the information, and what you suggests sounds like a good plan. BUT, specifically, how do I "TRY" (as you say) to rename NPSWF32.dll to NPSWF32.old???

Thanks!
