Are you using imwheel?
Netscape doesn't wheelscroll by default on linux, so some extra setting or
driver is allowing that.

How is your mouse configured in /etc/X11/XF86Config (or XF86Config-4 if you have
that)

I just have it as mandrake 8.0 standard install

The problem seems to come and go with a restart of mozilla
but I've since returned to netscape 6.3

No answer since over 1 month, closing bug as WFM.

Please reopen, if you have problems with newer builds (1.4 final) or search for
