Ask HN: What websites still work with Netscape?

2 points by wtt604 2 years ago | 5 comments

I downloaded Netscape 7.2 from archive.org and ran it under wine.

After a bit of typing, the only website I could find that even remotely works is grc.com. I'm wondering why that is, and also, what other sites can I browse like it's 1995?

How are you defining "works"?

You can click on links and it doesn't immediately blow up, ideally, it would be like how GRC.com works, but if it has 'some' level of functionality, just to browse around in, that would be nice.
