Sorry Mike,  I misunderstood you.  I re did it as you suggested and I 
could not get it to mess up using google as the search engine, so went 
to dogpile and did the same search and when I got to one of the pages 
which had previously closed using the scroll, this time it just froze 
up, did not close.  So I looked at the terminal window and it had come 
back to the dbg prompt so I ran bt full and got what I'm sending you.  
I'm including the data from run as it shows a segfault and didn't know 
if it was informative to you or not.
Anyway, the browser window did not close but was locked up and it 
finally came up with the notation that the program had stopped running 
and asked if I wanted it terminated or to keep it running.  I terminated 
it to close it out.

If I'm still not doing it right or you need more info let me know.  Thanks.
Whit
