Versions of FF after 3 are much better at multithreading. This can expose
existing problems 
for multiprocessor systems. The new patched tcpip32.dll fixes most of the
multiprocessor 
problems (at least the internet related ones) and makes FF much more stable on 
mulitprocessor systems.  You should definitely be using the patched
tcpip32.dll. It makes a 
huge difference.

From the VOICE news mailing list:

Steve Levine has released a patched version of tcpip32.dll that should
prevent the crashes many people have when using the Mozilla apps.  The
patched dll and documentation is available from:  

  http://e-vertise.com/misc/tcpip32-safe.zip

The patch is intended to make this dll multi-thread and SMP safe.  It
adds no new code;  it simply redirects calls made to unsafe routines
and routes them to safe versions that were already present in the dll.  

The patched dll is recommended for those using SMP systems but can be
used with any machine.  It is based on the version of tcpip32.dll that
is included with eCS 2.x (2004-05-21  11:15  98,611).  It may be com-
patible with earlier versions of this dll but that has not been tested.
