    Firefox was originally built on Mac OSX . Tyr using Mozilla 1.3.1 available at http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.o...O-1.3.1.dmg.gz

    Let me know if it works for you.

    A note about browsers for older Mac systems: This is my main "support" question - what browser should I use for Mac OS 9? The best option is of course to upgrade your hardware and use the latest version of Mac OS X since, with the exception of iCab, development on all browsers for Mac OS 9 has ceased.
    <saitan> In no particular order, here are some browsers that work on Mac OS 9: Opera, iCab, MS Internet Explorer, WannaBe (text only), MacLynx (text only) Mozilla, WaMCom Mozilla, Wazilla, Netscape 6/7 (not version 4!). Don't expect everything to work with specific web pages or web sites.

    You can try using very first version of SeaMonkey but i doubt that it will work for you.
