    Hi i'm looking for a nice low profile web browser to use on a VERY old IBM running '98, using firefox atm, but the machine only has 40Mb and that's struggling. So i'm hoping someone may have a suggestion for a nice mini-browser , don't need anything special, but being able to use this old machine would be very useful.

    Thanks,

    Ian

    I have somewhere downstairs a very old 166mhz Pentium and I used to use the internet explorer which came with Win98.
