An instant messager program.
I can best place these notes from a little before 2000-12-06, as I have a note referencing this software from Opera – Ancient Windows notes which was written around that date.

The problem with the Mozilla of browsers is that decent functionality isn’t included out of the box. This is what drove me away from Windows and I don’t want to waste my life configuring things anymore.. so I can’t really stand this browser.
This project is dead – see SeaMonkey.

A capable email client tiny enough to fit on a floppy!
This program prompted my very first review!

was neoplanet.com
A Windows 16bit internet browser+email suite. It leveraged Internet Explorer‘s HTML rendering engine.
This is probably the most significant piece of software I’ve ever used, because it was the initial prompt for my writing and publishing reviews. It pushed a major hobby and has influenced whole careers. As for it being any good.. well it had potential that it didn’t meet. At the time it was better than Opera but it just didn’t survive the web browser marathon.

An email client. I believe this was originally 16 bit and I likely ran it on Windows 3.1.
This would have been one of my major programs back then. (version not recorded)

A chat AddOn.
I use it to eliminate my need to hold alt to move my cursor back and forth while typing into the chat box, and to move that box to the top so can move the whole chat area down further.

https://koodo.960960.xyz/en
A hot garbage e-reader program.
It’s all candy and bubblegum like Calibre, making it extremely difficult to navigate and use. I just want to open files and view them. I don’t need a fucking document management system.
