Get a new version of Mozilla.  M18 is *really* old at this point (not
necessarily in terms of age, but in terms of the development lifecycle).
0.9.2 is available now and includes a graphical installer.  Just install
mozilla to something like /usr/local/mozilla and it will be left alone
by the Debian packaging system.

I've been using Mozilla as my primary browser for close to a year at
this point, and with the current 0.9.x releases it absolutely blows
Netscape 4 away in terms of performance, stability, and features.

noah
