I have Three PC's with Windows NT 4.0 as operating system at various locations. Lot of people are using those PC's to access internet, after they finish browsing they close the netscape browser. Is there a way that I can disable users from closing the netscape browser. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Sorry, I can't find on Netscape's site how to do this. There must be a way.
If this is an issue, and if changing to Internet Explorer is an option, here is the REgistry tweak to prevent the window from being closed. Go to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
and add a DWORD value called NoClose equal to 1.
That works in IE. Not Netscape.
Sorry.

Actually, I am on drugs!
Ignore that NoClose command. It is NOT for IE. That prevents people from shutting down NT itself.

As Joseph answer in to prevent NT from shutting down not Netscape browser. We are only using Netscape and not planning to go for IE.

Thanks for the help
