Ah, the memories... I don't miss IE though!

Adding another goodie to the mix (Win XP theme for W10): https://gumroad.com/dpcdpc11?sort=page_layout#wRlqw

I'm subscribed to the yearly plan and can confirm all his themes are top notch.

Another great profile to check out is Niivu on Deviantart. Here's one of his themes: https://www.deviantart.com/niivu/art/Joyful-Desktop-Windows-10-Theme-858354411

P.S. These themes require 3rd party programs that patch W10. I've been using them for a while now without any BSODs or anything.

@humptydumpty Oh those look nice

@marcusquinn Google took a staggering 6 seconds to load in that old IE. I wanted to get Firefox on there since FF uses it's own SSL CA store but couldn't get it loaded.

but man WinME was a trip down memory lane

@murgero hehe, yes I also have win98 running in virtualbox, however so far also didn't succeed to open 99% of the websites.

@nebulon According to this blog, this browser should fix that:

(I haven't tested, nor do I trust the site.)
