I'm actually close to finishing a website builder exactly for this purpose - and compatible with Internet Explorer 5 + the latest Classilla. If you don't find anything feel free to message me and I can get it sorted for you within a month or so once everything's finished. The only costs involved are Hosting ($15NZD/month) and domain registration, but free domains are available if you don't need a custom one.

Edit:
Oops I just saw your last message. Nice one!!

You mean one can use his Mac OS9 computer and create a simple HTML 4 (?) website? That'd be something cool! Care to write some more about it?

Remember the Mac Garden offers free hosting (Geocities style). If you don't need your own domain, that's at least a great start.

One thing I deem would be awesome to have is some sort of search engine (or web catalogue akin to 90s yahoo) where we'd find all these Classilla or even Netscape 4 compatible websites). Anyone feeling like tackling this project? :-)

Not quite, although I would love to do this once I get some more time on my hands. At the moment it's a modern web app so you would build and maintain the website on a modern OS, but the website is served over HTTP and is fully accessible to IE5 and Classilla. There is a customisable 'template' (I plan on adding more themes) with a bunch of components to build your website with pretty much everything you'd need (blogs, image galleries, file downloads, documents etc.). The web app has a 'visual editor' so its mostly WYSIWYG - no need to know HTML/CSS etc. The themes are built for older browsers, so the websites look like they're from the 90's with some modern tweaks.

I would love to do this! (at some point). For the time being I could set up a 'directory' if that would be useful? If it would be useful feel free to send me URLS and I can add them
