Last version of Historic Browser brand
cowlitzronApril 27, 2010
Pros
Opportunity to see how pages display in historic browser brand.
Cons
No support for CSS, frames, javascript, DOM, Java, Flash, XML. Buggy with tables.
Summary
It is a historic browser brand that was the first to display images on web pages. However, most web pages today, will not display right with this browser, and many web functions will not work with this browser. Almost nobody uses this browser anymore.
