KHTML on Windows part III

EDIT: There is now a part IV of this serie.

I have two times written about ways of getting a KHTML browser (Konqueror) to work on Windows (Win32). If you are interested I wrote, part I and part II where I tell you the why, who and when. The first guide was quite complex, the second guide a bit easier but not dead easy. Now it is time for my third try, I think this one my grandmother could grasp.

The really easy way to get Konqueror up and running on Windows in 6 steps.

* Head over to WMware and download their Free version of WMware Player.
* Install WMware Player, if your firewall screams just OK that.
* Next, go to this page and download the SUSE 10 with KDE 3.5 WMware Player image.
* Unzip the file, the folder should contain a few files.
* Fire up WMware Player, the program will ask for a image file, find the folder you just unzipped.
* Your firewall might scream, just OK that.

Now SUSE loads and after a while you are greated with the SUSE desktop and Konqueror is loaded, just head over to any website of your choice.

Done, easy as that, Konqeror on Windows in 6 steps. Be amazed of the speed of using WMware Player and that networking just works.
