I'll spare everyone the deluge of messages on this subject. To summarize:

It also seems to affect Netscape Navigator 3.X and Netscape Communicator
4.X on all platforms. It may not crash every time but it does so very
consistently. It crashed when you load some page after the page containing
the recursive frames. If the page you load after is already in you cache
your chances of crashing seem to be greater. YMMV.

It is interesting to note that when the first version of Navigator that
supported frames came out (version 2.0) Netscape claimed that they handled
recursive frames correctly (they did not display them).

Thanks to everyone that sent reports in.
