Considering this browser's sad history the past 3 years I do not know why
anyone would expect anything better. Personally, I still like version 3.04
best. I run it with Java disabled; use its old emailer and scripting turned
off. Since I rarely accept attachments, I've effectively eliminated most of
the virus attacks.
Actually I'd be delighted to buy a real Linux browser that wasn't bloated
and that offered mail. Does anyone know how well the STAR OFFICE browser
and emailer work in Linux? It worked okay in Winbloz.
