I've been using the 4.5 US.SPARC LINUX 2.0 version for about 2 years
now.
It can be found at
http://home.netscape.com/download/archive/client_archive45x.html#4.5
When looking at help->about it displays:
This version supports U.S. security with RSA Public Key
Cryptography, MD2, MD5, RC2-CBC, RC4, DES-CBC,
DES-EDE3-CBC
It's quite stable on my Ultra 1 and 5, but you might want to use libc5
from
oldlibs next to glibc anyway.
I've looked at other browsers, but keep going back to this older thing,
just
because it's 'faster' IMHO.
