Girafa 2.1
W9x/Me/2000/NT/XP
Free
Location on CD: software/windows/browse/girafa/

Girafa works with MS Internet Explorer 4 or later and allows you to see thumbnail images of any pages linked from a Web page. It's great when you're working with a search engine, you just click the Girafa button in the IE toolbar and it will open the Explorer bar where you can see thumbnail images of the pages that were returned in your search results. You can also preview links on any Web page by highlighting them with your mouse and Girafa will display a thumbnail of the page that the link is pointing to.

The program can be used as a visual bookmark organiser and with one click lets you 'send to a friend' an email message containing visual images of links instead of dull old text URLs.

iLink 1
OS X 10.1.5
Shareware
Location on CD: software/mac/browse/ilink/

iLink is a bookmark manager designed for people who use more than one browser. So if you use browsers such as Chimera or Apple's Safari, as well as MS Internet Explorer or other browsers, this might help you. When launched, iLink automatically searches for and imports every bookmark of any Web browser installed on your Mac.

Safari and Mozilla, for example, import Internet Explorer bookmarks only once, so that if you add a bookmark to IE it will not appear in those browsers, but it will be available in iLink. Control-click on a link in iLink to open a contextual menu that will allow you to launch it in any of the browsers installed on your machine.
