It is a challenge to find useful apps that run under 95 or can be made to run with some tweaking.

So what have I gotten to run? (I always include typical updates like DCOM95 and DUN1.4)

SeaMonkey 1.1.x: It just works. And works great! I use it all the time under 95. The only glitch I ever ran in to was that a fresh install from an "installer" build might fail to start up, but downloading a "zip" build and extracting that to the folder where it was installed always seems to fix that. Also requires the file "Rsabase.dll" if you installed without IE like I did. (Update: The final version, 1.1.19, has a bug making HTTPS connections under NT 3.51, 95, and NT 4. To work around this problem, either use 1.1.17 or use this modified DLL: freebl3.zip see my browsing fixes page for more details.)

Opera 10.10: Works well. I set Opera to use the classic theme so it looks more sane.

Firefox 2.0.0.x: Not designed to run under 95, but delete the files "nsSafebrowsingApplication.js" and "nsSearchService.js" and it will mostly work.

Flash 7: Works great, and was designed for 95. But flash 8/9 won't work though.

FileZilla 2.2.7a and WinSCP 3.8.3 work perfectly under 95.
