Possibly a text based browser, such as Lynx? Have you tried replacing <I>
with <EM> (denoting emphasis). Most graphical browsers translate <EM> to
italics, but text based ones should be able to do something else, like
change text color or use reversed text. And I think (I could be very wrong
here) some search engines score words in <EM> as more relevant.
