    Obviously this ones for the Mac surfers out there.

    What software recommendations do you have for safe surfing, either free or commercial packages.

    Thanks, Peter

    Does Mozilla work with the Mac?

    Cheers, Dewi

    It does Dewi. Both Firefox – Web Browser – and Thunderbird – E-mail – are on there site for MAC O/S ( http://www.mozilla.com )

    I’ve been using both now for a couple of months and I’ve no problems with it. I don’t think I’ll be going back to IE & Outlook.

    Give it a try.

    Regards

    Does Safari come with OS9? I can’t remember because I have been running OSX for a while now. Anyway, if it does, you can do a lot worse than to run that.

    Hi guys,
    seems my OS is not supported be either of the options mentioned. So I either need to upgrade all my OS and software or switch to PC browsing (prefer not).
    Anyone any other suggestions?

    Thanks, Peter

    Hi Peter,
    I’m using OS9, it’s version 9.2.2 I use Internet Explorer version 5.1.7 and Outlook Express for e-mail version 5.02. They all work fine on this G4 and the imac I had at home.
    If you have any problems finding these let me know and I’ll e-mail them to you.
    Regards,
    John.

    Using Explorer in OS9 [tried others but ended up back with IE]
    Outlook Express in OS9 same again

    OSX Safari
    OSX Mac Mail
    both work very good in my opinion…
