Sorry, the mentioning of the clicking of the icon is surely
irrelevant - I really just meant to say that netscape won't
start. Of course the icon *is* associated with the command
netscape (I have used wmaker for 3 years).
It slipped in I guess because it could be assumed the problem
lies in an interaction between netscape and wmaker - but hey
let's forget about the damn icon ;-)

Same thing - but it only happens occasionally and the annoying
thing is that apparently there is no proces to kill to fix the
problem. Thought maybe someone had had this experience and
could shed some light..
