A more recent version of Mozilla

[Ken Watanabe]

I thought the last version of Mozilla that supported the "classic" Mac 
OS was 1.21.  Fortunately, this is incorrect.  On the Apple Support 
Discussions Forum, a very helpful post pointed me to this web site.

http://wamcom.org/

They (WaMCom - Web and Mail Communicator) are maintaining a "more stable 
and more correct" version of Mozilla, currently based on the 1.31 code. 
 And there's a download for Mac OS 8.6 - 9.x.  It's the best version of 
Mozilla I've used.

I'm using it now for this email.  I tried the browser and it is 
noticeably faster than IE 5 at rendering most web pages.  And it seems 
to be more stable than any previous version of Mozilla (or the Netscape 
variant) that I've tried.  IE still launches faster than this Mozilla, 
but the difference is not so big as before.

It runs quite well on my G3-upgraded 8100.  Stock Nubus PowerMacs will 
probably not run it too well though.  It's also a bit of a RAM hog 
compared to IE.  But I think it's a great alternative to the IE/OE combo 
I've been using for years.
