    The latest thing I've seen from IBM is that Mozilla is their current choice
    of web browser on AIX, replacing Netscape. I found versions of Mozilla for
    AIX 4.3.3 through 5.2 without any difficulty just searching on the IBM site.

    It says it supports 128-bit encryption.

    I don't think it's on the install CDs, though: you'll have to download it.

    If you want Lynx, you can download that in RPM format from the AIX Toolbox
    for Linux:
