The Updated Mini List of Win98/ME Software

So how compatible with the modern web (HTML5, etc...) is Opera 9x and 10x? (I liked v10.10). Is it good enough to get around in?

Opera 10.6x is more stable, and doesn't freeze as much. It has better aligned graphics too. The only browser I currently trust on NT 4.0.

A small contribution: I just tried the $ AXE hex editor software (shareware, now abandoned, the website says it is for OS Win 95 to XP)
I found that AXE version 3.3 runs well in my system (Win98SE with USP V2.1 and wihtout KernelEX), but AXE version 3.4 crashes; AXE version 3.4 runs well in WinXPSP2. Could you confirm this (the AXE V3.4 crashes in Win98SE)?
Some info: www.brothersoft.com/advanced-hex-editor-15771.html

AXE V3.4 installer (https://web.archive.org/web/20040204123303/http://www.jbrowse.com/downloads/installAXE.exe)
AXE V3.3 installer (https://web.archive.org/web/20031009005722/http://www.jbrowse.com/downloads/installAXE.exe)
Kind regards.

to jaclaz: because with AXE you can view a file in a graphical manner setting the column width, and seeing the file like a bitmap field, and then you can graphically discern different file areas of your interest (for example like editing graphical resources in dos games).

Hello to all from Italy. Ciao.

I see :), like the graphical view here?

I believe that Hex Edit has a similar feature, called "aerial view":

http://www.hexedit.com/index.html

but cannot say if last version working with Win9x (if any) has it.

Hexplorer:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/hexplorer/

definitely has it (and should be Win9x compatible) :unsure:

free---Clam sentinel (Windows 98/98SE/Me/2000/XP/Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8)-- enables real-time scanning with ClamWin and adds its own heuristic scan engine to detect malware for which ClamWin does not yet have signatures.

Sometimes I need to perform measurements on digital images (distances, angles, bending radius, mouse trip).
Here I want to share with you some small freeware tools, very useful in my opinion, for simple geometric measurements without having to install huge design programs, and a color capture program.

HP RecordNow 4.56 could be added to the list. The program itself 'requires' an older version to be installed but unzipping the installation file and installing it via MSI will install the program with no faults and does not need a previous version then. It's a great program and works with many of the new drives. I've used it for years and it does data disks, exact copies, music CDs, and ISO images (use the data disk option and it'll ask you if you want to create a disk with the image). It also burns to DVD drives as well. It does not require anything special from HP either, it just works.
