No, that was before OS X, and it was relatively short-lived.

This is interesting, though:

It look like it may be running a native version of Internet Explorer under Wine or something (which is a Windows API virtual environment for Mac and other OSs). If what you need to do is relatively lightweight, you may be able to get away with this.

Hey ElDiabloConCaca, thanks a lot. I appreciate your help. I downloaded Darwin and IE6. With Darwin 1.0 doesn't the web doesn't work. With 1.1 after 10 seconds it gives me an error message and it kicks me out. So, I guess is a Wine problem. I'll wait for a better version.

Thanks to everybody who tried to help.
I'll see you around.
-Andy

You mean Darwine, don't you? Darwin is the UNIX basis of MacOS X. Darwine is the Darwin port of WINE, a clone of Windows APIs.
