Not specific to this situation, but sometimes Netscape will just stop
accepting keyboard input. This will sound really strange, but it works
on every instance of netscape that I've tried it on, maybe it'll work
here.
Go to File->Open Location. Then just close the windows that pops up.
My theory is that the Motif widgets just get frozen somehow and once you
bring up a window that somehow forces a relinking to the keyboard it
clears up; I don't know if that is really how it works though.
