Correct, I think I got confused by the big Windows binaries and seeing nothing specific for Linux. All included EXEs are used only when building for Windows (e.g. dotnet publish -r win-x86 on any platform or via Visual Studio "Run" toolbar button). On Linux they are ignored (WebOne is using already …

Windows 1.x-3.x are using mouse pointer pictures from display driver. As far as I remember, you need 16-bit version of Resource Hacker, and replace the CURSOR resource in VGA.DRV (VGA.386) file. But this is for Win3.11 & VGA graphics. For Palmtop this is a slightly difficulter as its is need to copy …

Just for fun checked on my test machines, seems, the proxy does have some support for IPv6. When opening in regular mode (through proxy) I'm got "Bad Request - Invalid Hostname" message from .NET Core Runtime (it is shown not by the proxy, but by the HTTP library I've used in it). However if open in …

Haven't run it as a daemon before; could it have something to do with that? No. This seems to be an network issue. Or this may be caused by firewall, system settings or something. Try to stop the daemon ( $ sudo service webone stop ) and then re-launch proxy as a regular program ( $ WebOne or $ …

Hm! Yes, seems, the packages of WebOne 0.10.5 are broken. Visual Studio has changed line endings from LF to CrLf between my testing and building of release packages.

Give it a shot and see if you can replicate it. I haven't seen this, so this is a very strange bug. Do you're using a virtual machine or real PC? I've seen similar with Virtual PC 2007 and Netscape 4.51 when the proxy is running on the host OS, but if I run the proxy on another real machine, …

All is good. Set 192.168.0.88, port 80 as HTTP proxy server IP/port in Windows 98 browser settings. WebOne is ready for incoming requests. If Win98PC will non recognize proxy (and there will be no messages in log window), disable Windows 10's Firewall (or open TCP port 80 in it).
