I use Safari and Firefox. I prefer Firefox for its customizability compared
to Safari. The main dislike of Firefox is its inability to render pages
cleanly. Sometimes text on websites like Yahoo is overlapped.

Since I don't use Opera, I don't have much to say about it.

Typically websites will have a link to previous versions, albeit
well-hidden Smile .
I found this page:
http://www.opera.com/download/index.dml?step=2&opsys=MacOS&platform=MacOS

which goes back to version 9.10, I think. How old a version did you
want? I'm running version 8.23 under system 10.3.9
