That's odd, I have had good luck with mozilla as well. I used to have
a lot of trouble with IE6, so I started using mozilla and now prefer
it. I'm not a MS basher, I just like this one better. I'm currently
using Mozilla Firefox, and Thunderbird, with Win98lite on my 560x, and
never have a crash. [knock on wood, lol]

Open office is free, BTW. I used to run it on my 560x as well, but was
running out of disk space and had to free up some room. I probably
should look into a bigger HD soon :-) I still use it on my Desktop
machine.

Good luck,
Dan
