You can't upgrade to IE 6 on a Mac...the last official release was 5.2.3 for OS X and 5.1.7 for OS 9.

Try using Netscape 7.0.2 in OS 9. Much more stable and faster than IE in OS 9.

A big boost would be to max the RAM to 1GB. If they didn't like OS X on that Mac because of slowness, it's due to only having 256MB of RAM.

IE is terrible on oSX IMHO. Has he tried using Safari as his web browser? Cory's comment about the RAM is spot on too.
