This actually sounds more like something with your Video Card. Maybe a newer driver or possibly setting the color depth to something like 256 Colors would cure this.

I've also seen some wierd things by having the 2X/4X acceleration set for cards that don't support this or having the Apeture size set to big or small in the bios *usually 64 is fine for most cards).

Good luck to you

Try running the repair option for netscape , this happens for IE , it's likely an issue with the explorer. Also after getting a fault , run C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\SFC.EXE from the run option (this is the system file checker) and see if something caused a misplaced driver or damaged one
