Mine crashes all the time. >You're saying Ibrowse and AWeb are *less* reliable? Much less reliable on my system, with IBrowse the worst of the lot. AWeb only rarely hangs, but doesn't do things like forms, some graphics, and some downloads, where Mosaic plods along but handles virtually everything thrown at it, even if it can't display it. About the only time it freezes up is when the system is under very heavy use. Not as fancy or fast, but I'll take it any day until the others are as reliable. (with AmitCP or MLINK, PPP, MUI 3.3. on an A1200 030 w/ 4M fast ram added). > >---- >"Not many fishes, in the sea.
