Almost every time a launch html file Netscape Navigator 4.7 create file. I have W98
starts with _hash888**.
It clutters all over my folders ... I have to weed it out manually ... What do I do to keep this from happening?

From the forums:

"The "hash" files are created because of corruption in one of these (3)files:
CERT7.DB....KEY3.DB.....SECMOD.DB.
Close Netscape and rename/delete the hash files. Then in the Netscape file directory look for and rename the aforementioned (3) files. Export any security certificates first. If you don't have any security certificates just delete/rename the (3) files. Restart Netscape. The (3) files rebuild. Should be no more "hash" files."
