When I first interwebbed many moons ago, I used to use Netscape Navigator. After college & before I got my own laptop, I switched to Explorer, because that's what the library had.

When I got my own computer I used Explorer until maybe 4 years ago or so & switched to Chrome.

I've also tried FireFox, which I know is the descendant of NN, but it didn't seem all that different to me.

One thing I do know, is that they all kind of suck, each in their own way.
