What Is Internet Explorer 4.0?

Internet Explorer 4.0 delivers all the basic functionality you've come to expect from a web browser. It enables you to gather information from servers located on your company's intranet or on the World Wide Web. It displays text and graphics in richly formatted pages, runs scripts, accesses databases, and downloads files. With the help of Internet Explorer 4.0, you can establish secure, encrypted sessions with distant servers so that you can safely exchange confidential information, such as your credit-card number, without fear that a third party will intercept it.
