And thusly Richard Erlacher spake:
When Netscape was released, it required a third-party "WINSOCK" module that
one had to buy from someone, normally "Trumpet" and that P*SSED me off, since
I'd previously been able to work with a free version. I did give Netscape a
try for a month or three months or whatever the "free trial period" for the
Trumpet winsock module was, but that turned out to be a poor choice next to
Trumpet WinSock was needed with Windows 3.1 because it did not have a TCP/IP
stack. I remember every ISP I used at that time provided a free copy of
Trumpet WinSock.
For a good *small* memory footprint browser now, try Opera.
Cheers,
Bryan
