Depending no your skill or knowledge level, you can build a program in Visual Basic 4 that would suit your needs. If you have installed Microsoft's Internet Explorer then you have the ability to encapsulate much of its functionality in yor own app while only exposing the features you want. this would allow you to make full use of the latest in browser technology(far better than Netscape, but then i'm highly opinionated here). the beauty here is that you control the interface, i.e. menus, toolbars, etc. and it would take very little code to implement. there are other considerations when dealing with 32-bit operating systems that limit how much control you are allowed but there are ways around most of that too. i can go on if anyone is interested.

I have found a really neat piece of software (called InfoCourier) which compiles HTML files, images etc into a self executing EXE file. It contains a browser, and uses about 600k for he browser part. It allows you to put your website (or a bit of it) onto any machine - it doesnt need Netscape or IE, though I don't know about a MAC version. It has a 'clean screen' option which removes all file menus, buttons etc, so you have to rely on HTML links and anchors. You can get an evaluation version from http://www.smartcode.com it cost 100UK pounds (about 150$) for the full version In article <v01530500af28f5279801@[204.140.246.62]>, Jim Angus <[log in to unmask]> writes > >Does anyone know of a variation (a hacked version) of Netscape (or another >browser) that has some features disabled, features such as: > >1.
