 I was thinking of replacing the existing Links2 with Links2ssl from the

and replace the Links-0.90 program that does not work now.  I also tried 
Abiword, it comes up but then dies right away.  What I would really like 
is to clean the added applications out and put in Opera.  Or take the 
current 3.50 Loop version and expand it to 50 meg.

Just delete the old links.  Nothing else uses it.
If you added the applications using a Slackware package,
If you have hd space  and memory for links2 don't bother with links123.

tar -ztvf package.tgz shows what is in it.
Delete anything in bin or doc or man, but it is safer not to
delete libraries, since something else might use them.
What applications did you add?

Abiword I think needs 15-bit (16-bit?) color.  So does Opera.
What color depth do you have set for X?  Look in Xconfig of XF86Config.
