Windows Forum / Windows 95 / March 2004Windows 95 is done
I think that windows 95 is done. Since Msoft no longer provides support, it seems that Win 95 has gone by the way side. My computer went down and was unable to access the www. I think it has to do with the fact that Msoft will no longer upgrade the I.E. for 95 users.......Time to get a new computer anyway You do not have to use IE to access the www. There are a number of other web browsers available that work just fine with W95.  SignatureJeff Richards MS MVP W95/W98 > I think that windows 95 is done.

The latest versions of Netscape (http://channels.netscape.com/ns/browsers/default.jsp), Mozilla (http://www.mozilla.org/) and Mozilla Firefox (http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/) all work. (Firefox's requirements page says it needs Win98, but posters say that it runs fine on Win95). There are other things Win95 has trouble with, like huge disks and USB, but you can get an up-to-date browser. SignatureTim Slattery MS MVP(DTS) Slattery_T@bls.gov |
