iCab under OS 9.1 is very stable for me, but it is slow and there is a lot it won't do. For example, I can't log into my bank account's website with it, because I get a message that it doesn't support 128 bit encryption.
Make sure you're running the latest iCab - 2.9.8.
iCab's preferences, Network, Internet Protocols. Make sure all the encryption levels are checked.
If they are, and you still get the message from your bank, then the problem is probably a badly written JavaScript on the bank's web site. You can try spoofing - changing iCab's identity and iCab's JavaScript identity - to see if you can fool the bank into talking to you.
Also, a lot of websites that are designed to display images and text horizontally in a single window, will display all these items in a long vertical band on the left of the screen. One has to scroll several pages down to see it all.
This is a CSS issue. To be addressed in iCab 3.
I don't know if that is due to some preference I have set, but I often have to launch Internet Explorer 5.1.7 in order to use some sites.
This is why iCab is BETA software. And why many of us supplement it with Mozilla. :)
I am convinced IE is responsible for the bulk of my crashes. Ever since I began launching IE only when I really had to, and then quitting as soon as possible, my crashes have been reduced to less than 10% of what they used to be.
Yup. Try Moz instead. Then maybe you'll be microcrud free.
