Netscape; Old Versions (4-6)
Not sure which section to put this in but...I'm trying to find old versions of Netscape & I.E for testing purposes. I tryed the archive product page on the netscape page but its a dead link? and I couldn't find old versions of IE on microsoft's site, only patchs & service packs....
Thanks

I found Netscape easily enough:

The only link that appears not to work is Netscape3 but why bother?
IE does not allow multiple installations. In any event, they push their new browsers so effectively that earlier versions disappear pretty quickly.
Another option is to check the CDs from old products and computer books. Often they will bundle in a browser for various reasons. I think I even have a copy of both IE3 and Netscape3 around somewhere for that reason. Pop by your local library and check out some of the more dated computer books.

I believe you can test your site with older browsers at: http://www.anybrowser.com
