Been running Mozilla builds (in fact that's what I'm sending this from) 
for a while - it has been well said that already Mozilla is superior to 
Netscape Communicator.  No spelling check built in - and I *think* they 
might have an import utility to import your old Netscape 4 stuff.  1.0 
will be out soon enough though and 0.9.9 had a few really annoying bugs 
- it's far from unusable though and works for 99% of the sites I visit 
with it (it's my primary browser and has been for close to two years.)

What happened when you hid your old profile date from NS 4.x?  That 
should've eliminated any user settings that might have screwed it up. 
 If that does do the trick you can slowly pull your old profile data 
back in one file/one section at a time to see where/when/what file made 
it choke.

The only other thing I can suggest if it persists is to grab the latest 
Communicator installer and re-install it.  I personally have not seen it 
do that before.  

Good luck,

David
