4. _B_u_g__F_i_x_e_s
Since this is the upgrade from Navigator 3.0X to
Communicator 4.51 by Netscape Communications Corporation,
there were thousands of bugs filed and fixed between the 3.X
series and 4.X series. For more details on bugs fixed and
new features in the Netscape Communicator 4.51 refer to the
following URL:

4.51.html
SGI held off on releasing a version of Communicator on IRIX
till the reliability and quality was good enough for our
customers. This is the culmination of all the waiting.
+o Performance improved on startup due to using the latest
MIPS compilers and cording the binary.
+o Fixed various Messenger / University of Washington IMAP
server problems which caused core dumps, hangs, and
loss of message statuses.
+o In various releases users' mailcap and mime.types
definitions were lost. This problem was fixed in 4.51,
however if you upgraded from 3.0* to 4.51, then you may
need to modify your ~/.netscape/preferences.js file to
remove any lines that reference
/usr/local/lib/netscape/mailcap or
/usr/local/lib/netscape/mime.types.
