I'm looking for a cheaper & easier solution, namely using the computer
(PM7200/120 with lots of memory) I now have. Also I want a simple solution
because I maintain my brother's computer in the next state and he is very
computer illiterate so I try to keep our systems identical to ease
troubleshooting. My wife almost died laughing when she found out I was a
computer 'expert' (to my brother).

If I can't find something to work with Earthlink then I have to find
another ISP that is compatible with an older Mac. Any ideas? I may
upgrade eventually but am not ready to do it before May 20, the deadline.

Mozilla 131 works fine on my PM7200/120. Is it 128 bit compatible? How do
I test it?

It says:
This version supports International
security with RSA Public Key
Cryptography, MD2, MD5, RC2-CBC,
RC4 .
Does that mean 128-bit? How do I test it?
