It is a shame to use old WEB browser. Your are limiting your own viewing capabilities. Your are limiting WEB developers in their strive to bring your new exiting material. Please, upgrade! Latest versions are available for free! There is no reason not to upgrade.
Latest version of Microsoft Internet Explorer for PC is 3.02! IE 3.02 is my personal favorite. Do not use IE 4.0! It takes over your desktop and it is too problematic! Latest version of Netscape Navigator for PC is Netscape Communicator (Preview Release 5) 4.0
You'll notice the difference right away! Both browsers automatically detect page coding and display Russian characters for you!
