Why netscape calls netstat is beyond me, but for those modules look into
/etc/modules.conf and you'll find:

alias net-pf-3            ax25
alias net-pf-6            netrom

Both are only used for TCP/IP via amateur radio. If you don't need that,
change those aliases to:

alias net-pf-3            off
alias net-pf-6            off

regards
Philipp
