What is the best browser for a PowerBook running OS9

I just got my old PowerBook working and wanted to use it as a netbook to surf the web. It is running the classic OS9 system. Any thoughts out there on the best current Browser for this? Essentially, I want to surf the web, watch youtube videos, check gmail, AoLmail, use online web 2.0 applications like (Picnic - photoediting or Google Apps) or Flash based online applications PBS kids (for my daughter) Any thoughts here would be appreciated?

Also, I read that two browsers I am unfamiliar with (Classila and Icab 3) are compatible here? Has anyone ot there had any experience with these or others that may be useful here.

Thanks,

Ray

Another possibility is wamcom which is a form of mozilla. URL included and there is some info on classila as well. Click on the link and it will take you to the classila web page. I have used icab and found it useful but it sometimes has problems rendering pages. Ralph

Probably IE or netscape, check this website for a lot of old mac apps that are useful:

I can't possibly see why anyone would downvote this.

Frankly I don't either. +1 Ralph

Yeah I just got about 5 downvotes on random questions, bet it's my evil spammer again. Thanks for the+!

I've utilized iCab on my Pismo (OS 9.2.2) without any problems.

Update (08/18/2020)

Think about installing TenFourFox, a port of Mozilla Firefox for PowerPC based Macs running OS 10.4 and OS 10.5. Works well with Tiger

From what I've heard from others, that's a good and viable option

Try to upgrade it to 10.4 Tiger, because if using OS 9, lots of things is limited. Cannot open most of the websites and videos.

I have a pismo and is running OS 10.4.11. I can use either SAFARI and FIREFOX.
