Cool Reader 3 (ePub for W2K)
The epub format is relatively new and very few available document viewers for Windows 2000 support the format. Luckily, the obscure Cool Reader 3 does the job just fine. This humble reader is also compatible with other formats as well, but not PDFs. It's a wonderful utility to simply read books on a Windows 2000 machine, which isn't asking too much on the CPU. ;)
Features:
**Saves last session
**Customizable interface
**Zoom in or out
**Compatible with epub files and other formats
**Lightweight - works on Pentium M machines fine!
Requirements:
Windows 2000 or later
Instructions:
1) Unzip file
2) Launch coolreader3 and enjoy with any epub file. Feel free to make it the default epub viewer!
Notes:
**Application does not work very well on Windows 9x + KernelEx Updates. Only very old versions work, but are still very slow and unstable.
