Exciting! - No other browser supports the multimedia extensions that Microsoft Internet Explorer does. With background sounds, scrolling marquees, and inline video, the Web has never looked better. Try exploring a 3-D world with VRML -- another Microsoft Internet Explorer exclusive.

Fast! - Microsoft Internet Explorer makes the most of your connection speed with the fastest display speed around, support for HTTP keep-alive, multiple threads, and full 32-bit performance. And if your web site is busy, Microsoft Internet Explorer displays the text right away and draws the graphics later. So you can click links without waiting. And waiting. And waiting.

Easy! - Do you use Windows? Then you already know how to use Microsoft Internet Explorer. Click familiar toolbars, drag and drop links and graphics to your computer, and keep track of where you've been and where you want to go with Internet shortcuts. Even installation is easy -- just a double-click, no configuration required.

Compatible! - A browser shouldn't hold you back, and Microsoft Internet Explorer won't. It supports all of the popular HTML extensions, including Tables, "cookies" for shopping and customization, NNTP news reading, and more. And you can use it with any Internet service provider.

Safe! - Don't trust your credit card numbers to just any browser. Use Microsoft Internet Explorer to shop with confidence. It supports the SSL standards you can use today, and is ready for the ultra-secure STT in the future.

Best of all, Microsoft Internet Explorer is FREE!
(Although you might have to pay your service provider for the connect time required to download it.)
