Go through the netscape options carefully.  Ask questions if you don't think
something is right there.  I know I have had this problem but I don't
remember the solution.  Try as root to detect permission problems.  Is the
netscape dir in the default path, else you need a statement in the .bashrc.
Download a new netscape or delete and reinstall from the tarball the
existing ver..

check again the hosts hosts.allow/deny resolv.conf.  Scan the howto for file
permissions or pppd ppp-on/off options chat-* pap-secrets etc. (less / rwx n
n n n n....).  Check the permissions first.
