[SATLUG] A few questions on Mozilla 0.9.8

[Walt DuBose]

Wonderful...more problems...

Not do I just still not get/have a spell checker, but now (I open 
in Mail) when I try to open Navigator, Mozilla blows up and I get 
the following...

Gdk-ERROR **: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
   serial 13075 error_code 3 request_code 61 minor_code 0

Exit 1

Any help will be GREATLY appreciated.
