I'm using Netscape 7.1. I love reading news article online but a certain type of link causes my browser to stop working every time I click on them. Closing my browser and opening it again doesn't fix the problem. I have to reboot every time I click one of the links. The problem links all begin with "http://hosted.ap.org".

Here's a sample link that causes the problem for me:
http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories...09-22-20-13-02

Links like that are common on Drudge and other news site. I try to avoid them but sometimes forget and then have to reboot. That's a real pain. Does anyone know why those links cause me problems? Can anyone suggest how to fix things?

Thanks for any help.
