on win2k i used to use InternetExplorer 5 , but it is
incredibly annoying when the backspace-key is also the hotkey for
'back'; i guess you can see what problems might arise
from this when you accidentally unselect the textfieds when
deleting text, and press backspace a couple of times and end
up 3 pages back in history..

I have found Opera 3.6 to be by far the best browser for
zope-management. It is quick, lightweight, and usable with
full keyboard-access, but it costs money, and allegedly the
linux-version stinks (haven't tested it myself)
