Netscape will work with IE3,4.  When Netscape says that it is not
the default browser, just put an X in the box (that says do not ask
again) and select the choice that will *not* make Netscape the default.

Installing the standalone browser will not try anything 'funny'.
The Communicator Suite will install an AOL messanger thingy, but
don't worry.  Just open it up.  Pretend you are going to apply for it, but

goto the options menu and click "do not startup automatically on boot".

There, now go for it!
