  Making Communicator 4.5 forget headers ?
 
Does anyone know how to get Netscape Communicator 4.5 (Macintosh) to forget/expire/whatever the older headers from a newsgroup (such as lugnet.general) ? lugnet.general is getting close to 15K headers and my Mac (233/PPC) is beginning to really (...)

(...) Hrmmm, I've been busy for a while so I don't remember all the details, but right off the bat, I'd say upgrade to 4.08. Avoid Communicator like the plague (at least I do) or go with IE 5. Works for me. (25 years ago, 10-Feb-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) That is *not* a problem with Netscape. Your windows is corrupt. If you reinstall windows you should be fine (of course that's a major task). KL (25 years ago, 5-Feb-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
