HEEEEELP!!!

OK, so here is MY problem with Netscape 6.21. Actually the only
one I seem to be having.

I do alot of reading newsgroups on usenet. In 6.21 when the mail
and news window is open, the News servers, and consequently the
discussion groups subscribed to under each news server is on the
left.

Each server (Name) has a bullet to it's left that when clicked
on displays all the subscribed newsgroups for that server.
as such >news server name
V group one
V group two

MY PROBLEM is, that when I click that bullet (arrow?) for a second
time to contract all the newsgroup names once more under the
server name, BOOM it locks up . I then have to reboot netscape.

If I leave it open, and click on the little x in the upper
right hand corner of Netscape it lets me close the whole mail/
news window, but then ....everything is open when I load mail/
nws the next time.

Is this something that is aleady being worked on?

HELP!!! 8-(

Next time it happens, close netscape completely.
FIND the file "<newsgroup>.msf"
Delete the file.
Re-start Netscape. YOu'll have to re-download headers and re-
set preferences, but see if it solves the problem.
