This is a unique stack trace, apparently. Is there any series of pages that cause this? What browser are you using? What are the titeles of the pages in question? Do they have unusual characters in the titles?
Quote from original poster: i was only surfing the standard pages on www.borland.com/kylix -- and subsequent pages concerning product information. i have checked my history, and it shows no unusual characters in the address. everything at borland's site was rather normal as far as i could tell. i have gone back and checked the links, it seems pretty standard i am using mozilla 1.0 that came with ximian. now, i will admit that mozilla has been doing some weird things since the ximian edition/version was installed that i do not recall before the ximian install.
Does both the applet and the panel crash? Did you open any pdf files from the websites?
From mail: it has been several days now, but i am pretty sure that I was not loading any pdf documents. i do remember seeing links that were to pdf files, and at one point did try, but i recall cancelling it cos the applet kept crashing. yes, i do believe the panel itself was restarting each time the applet crashed--i suppose that means the panel crashed as well, doesnt it ? bob
