   Versions of FF after 3 are much better at multithreading. This can expose   
   existing problems    
   for multiprocessor systems. The new patched tcpip32.dll fixes most of the   
   multiprocessor    
   problems (at least the internet related ones) and makes FF much more stable on    
   mulitprocessor systems.  You should definitely be using the patched   
   tcpip32.dll. It makes a    
   huge difference.

   From the VOICE news mailing list:   
      
   Steve Levine has released a patched version of tcpip32.dll that should   
   prevent the crashes many people have when using the Mozilla apps.  The   
   patched dll and documentation is available from:     
      
     http://e-vertise.com/misc/tcpip32-safe.zip   
      
   The patch is intended to make this dll multi-thread and SMP safe.  It   
   adds no new code;  it simply redirects calls made to unsafe routines   
   and routes them to safe versions that were already present in the dll.     
      
   The patched dll is recommended for those using SMP systems but can be   
   used with any machine.  It is based on the version of tcpip32.dll that   
   is included with eCS 2.x (2004-05-21  11:15  98,611).  It may be com-   
   patible with earlier versions of this dll but that has not been tested.
