Dan: Once again, you are correct! I was able to get on line with the LCIII, using your instructions. I was going to reply using it (I'm on my G3 now) with Yahoo e-mail, but Netscape complained about an expired security certificate, and wouldn't let me in. I decided to download iCab, and got it installed. It's not working very well, though, as it just locked up. At least I'm on the right track now! Thank you for your help.
