When absolutely nothing else works, and I have to use a particularly PC optimized web site, I use a virtual PC from Connectix. <http:// www.connectix.com/products/vpc6m.html> With such a one installed on your Mac, you can run any Windows OS on it, and from there you can of course use any Windows Web Browser. Works amazingly well, but you need a pretty fast G4 or you will fall asleep because it gets too slow. Another thing (although I doubt it works) is to use "Safari Enhancer": <http://www.lordofthecows.com/safari_enhancer.php> With this installed you can choose Safari to tell the site it's i.e. a Windows MSIE 6.0 browser. Works for some sites, not for some. Max G
