Nuke Netscape. The 560's a P-I, 133-166 MHz, ~64 MiB RAM, no? That's a
bit light to be running Mozilla or Galeon, both of which are
best-of-breed browsers. I strongly favor Galeon.
I've had good results with BrowseX, a Tk/Tcl browser included on the
LNX-BBC. It's graphical, supports ssl, Javascript, and a number of
other goodies (Tcl scripting!). It's not packaged for Debian, but given
that it's a standalone binary, that's really not an issue:

The binary itself is tiny -- 200 KiB.
Another alternative is a text-mode browser. w3m rocks, and is
particularly useful when run within a 'screen' session. The w3m-img
extension provides a text-mode browser that does, er, images. I sense a
strong disturbance in the Source.
Peace.
