   If you want to remove all info about Netscape, then close   
   the program, remove it, then also rename the profile   
   directory.  Reinstall.  But, removing the program directory   
   isn't going to solve anything.  The problem is within your   
   profile.  Its that which is causing the problem. So, I would   
   suggest creating a new Test profile and test it out.  But,   
   unfortuantely, I know nothing about Macs and I can't tell   
   you how to do that. I think you can click on Tools, Switch   
   Profile, and that /might/ bring up the profile manager.   
    From there you can create a test profile.  Otherwise, you   
   can look around here:   
   http://ilias.ca/archive/netscape/profilefaq/ and it might   
   tell you something.  But most of his stuff is for windows.
