Well, there's Netscape 4, quite possibly the worst browser there is.

Have a look at http://aamcf.co.uk/temp/botch in IE or Mozilla, or Netscape 
6. Then take a look at the source code and guess how it will appear in 
Netscape 4. Now have a look in Netscape 4. This bug is so unpredictable 
even though I knew Netscape would screw it up I didn't know exactly how it 
would screw it up until I tried.

I know of a few other display oddities in different browsers, but none as 
bad as Netscape 4.
