NCBI home page:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/
You can access BLAST similarity search program & database from here.
BUT:

If you can get Mosaic2.alpha3 to work, it has no problems loading
Blast search page. But up to now I was unable to complete any search
this way either. Maybe the next version...
Try also this:
http://gc.bcm.tmc.edu:8088/bio/bio_home.html
or this:
http://info.er.usgs.gov/network/science/biology/index.html
Using of complex documents with current windows mosaic could be impossible,
but you can try also this:
http://gdbwww.gdb.org/
(BTW one can get access to this particular database with special program
for Mackintosh or via telnet after registration - but free)
