Question Older pc

I am working on a bit of nostalgia, a hp7125 , it is a P133 w/128mb ram(max), win95, currently ie3 I think. I know it is outdated, but what would the best browser be for this if I wanted to set it up as an email only type of machine? I know that ie6 is not gonna work. Opera? And does anybody have some suggestions for an A-V for 95? I tried upgrading it to win98se and it is way slow so went back to 95.

Try downloading an Oder version of opera and see how it runs.

Mozilla 1.6 will run on Win95, and it's got both browsing and e-mail.

AVG will install on Win95.

If you wipe the sucker, a P133 with 128 ram will run 98SE very nicely, I have 98SE on my loaner machine, which is a P100 with 32 megs ram and it's slow but tolerable.
