  Internet explorer was the shit in 1992. That’s only 30 years ago, not everybody is quick to switch. 😜

    Its biggest selling point was that it was bundled for free with Windows 98 while Netscape Navigator was still a pay-for product.

      Yes apparently I remembered 3 years wrong according to Wikipedia, I am pretty sure we got Internet Explorer for Windows 3.11, but Wikipedia states it was released with Windows 95 plus pack in 1995.
      But the plus pack although moderately successful cannot compete with being included with Windows 98. The last good Windows version, where you could boot to dos, and fix everything in Windows if they were broken. NT all the way up until Windows 11 sucks IMO. Bad design
