I got to mention this one to you DOS-ers.

http://www.arachne.cz/

A great freeware DOS Internet browser. Fully graphical!
Don't hesitate! DOS will be better with this piece of beauty!

Yup, its pretty neat, I had it installed on my old Win98 based PC. It's been on the dosgames.com Essential Utilities page for awhile now.

http://www.dosgames.com/essential.php But yes, it's a great webbrowser for DOS. I think Procerus (another member here, but he hasn't posted in a while) uses it as well.

Moved to General Dosgames.

I would say that since we already know about this and already have a topic about it somewhere, it shall be locked.

-But it still provides room for a good discussion. Unlocked.

SBC Yahoo myself. Best DSL provider in down.

Actually, it's the only one considering SBC/Ameritech's monopoly on Northern Indianapolis...

The main problem with Arachne is that fact that since it is 100% dos based, it will run REALLY slow. I don't remember the exact reason, but i think it has to do with the modem emulation function.

I switch between Mozilla, Opera, and IE, depending on what I feel like using.

AFAIK, SBC == Southern Bell Company. The ONLY (good, known) phone service in Ontario is Bell Canada. Therefore, they have a monopoly here as well.

Actually, it's the oldest telephone company on earth... founded by the inventer of the telephone...

The point being, old people suck. Dead ones even more.
