  • OS/2 Web Browser Question

    From MIKE POWELL@VERT/CAPCITY2/CAPCITY to ALL on Sun Nov 1 12:24:00 2009
    Aside from Firefox and Seamonkey, are there any other web browsers out
    there that are being kept current for OS/2 Warp 4? Is Warp 4 enough of a target for ne'er-do-wells that one has to worry about keeping ones browser
    as up-to-date as one does on a Windows machine?

    I used to use Firefox, but it got to be a little too demanding on
    resources. I switched to Seamonkey because it seemed faster, but now that
    it is based on the latest Firefox code, I am hesitant to upgrade it.

    Are there other alternatives for a graphical web browser that is
    lightweight and secure?
