you say you don't like Netscape, but have you tried mozilla?
Its being developed at a faster rate than any other browser, and is now in a useable state...
Unlike opera and ie, its also free in both sences of the word...
Mozilla?

I have heard of it, but, not used it or know anyone that does!
any other advantage and what OS's does it work on?
Mozilla?
Olli Posted Jan 29, 2002
Its officially being developed for *NIX mac and windows but there are unofficial ports underway for most other OS'es (sadly the BEOS port is having difficulties 
)
Its fully open source, and as i said is being developed at an astounding speed.
It has one of the most standards compliant engines and it also has a "broken" mode where it detects HTML that is written for IE and attempts to render it in the same ways as IE would.
It can use a tabbed interface, in much the same way as opera, and has many other little optional features including fully featured email, IRC, and website design clients...
The downsides are probablly more interesting to you though:
Although it loads websites about as quickly as opera, it uses much more ram If you don't have much it might be a good idea to use one of the mozilla forks such as galleon or kmelleon which are designed to use as few resources as possible...
also mozilla doesn't have a nice ICQ client like opera does

Cheers Olli,
But my present 486 system is too unstable for me to think about messing with it. Tho I hope to be getting an i-mac soon!
