Netscape Navigator and Comunicator are the most used ones
also for text-only mode lynx is very good, wich also doesn't requiere the
amount of memory wich netscape wants...

They are provided as .deb packages at your prefered debian mirror

This is true for lynx, but not for netscape/communicator.  There is an
installer programm for the latter though.  But you have to download a
binary distribution of netscape for linux from a ftp.netscape.com
mirror yourself.

If it would take the mouse to select links, I would strongly prefer lynx in 
general.  Unless you really need the pictures, it's more stable, faster, and 
takes less memory.  Also, it doesn't force you to download those moronic maps 
full of links, but displays the links that netscape keeps hidden, and handles 
cookies far more intelligently--it allows the option of always or never 
accepting cookies from a site, as well as yes/no.
