noun. Internet Explorer (IE) is a web browser developed by Microsoft. It was released in 1995 and became the most widely used web browser during the early 2000s, particularly because it was pre-installed on Windows operating systems. Internet Explorer allowed users to browse the World Wide Web, access websites, and view online content.
Over the years, Internet Explorer faced criticism for its security vulnerabilities, performance issues, and lack of compatibility with web standards. As a result, Microsoft discontinued Internet Explorer in 2015 and replaced it with a new web browser called Microsoft Edge, which offers improved features, faster performance, and better security.
While Internet Explorer is no longer actively supported, some organizations and individuals may still use it for compatibility reasons, particularly with legacy web applications or older versions of Windows. GPT3.5
