So true. Websites can only be dangerous if you have JavaScript enabled.
JavaScript is a carte blanche to run whatever code in your computer,
with the users privileges. https sites are "trusted", that means
that the communication is secure, not that there is no malicious
software present.

It would be almost unusable now.

The Pentium 3 was introduced in 1999, with new models introduced up to
2003.  As for using it, you might look at

My Toshiba Windows XP (2000) is perfectly usable. I dropped it one too many times,
and the built in midi expander doesn't work any more, because I poked
in the innards.
