You have got no chance of finding ANYTHING for OS 8. Mozilla isn't even made for System 9 (aka Classic) anymore.

Camino 1.0 came out today, but it's for OSX. How can you still run 8 ... it must be a bitch trying to find anything that'll run on it.

The only machines that would still be running 8 would be of a fair vintage. Most likely the equivalent of a 486 or early Pentium.

In order to fix some problem he is having with his access to Wespac website he needs to install Mozilla or Safari but his Imac does not have enough disk space to install Mac OS X.
Any other solution before I advise him to buy another computer ?

Is his iMac even capable of running OS X (hard drive space aside)?

Must be an early iMac if it is running system 8...

According to this article, the last Mozilla release for OS8 was 1.2.1. You can download it here.

Both the article and the release notes say that 1.2.1 works with OS8.

72.14.207.104/search?q=c...=au&ct=clnk&cd=1

1.2.1 will run on 8.6 or maybe 8.5. There's also WaMCom, but I don't know about that.
