No. Explorer is only available for the Solaris and HP-UX versions
of Unix, and even then only on the Sun/HP hardware platforms.
Explorer is not available for Linux or any other Intel-based Unix.

I've been all over Microsoft's site. I don't see anyplace there is one. I 
have, however, heard rumors of such a beast. Should you get a better answer 
to your message, I'd sure like to know too. Thanks.

I see that Netscape supports Linux. Does Internet Explorer support Linux
too? If so, where is the SPECIFIC web page that i go to download it? Please
don't say www.microsoft.com/download. Please be more specific than that.

It's me again. This should answer your question:

Micrsoft doesn't support Internet Explorer for Linux

No emotion for me. Fact is Micrsoft doesn't support Internet Explorer for 
Linux. Hence Netscape is my best choice. When Microsoft decides to give up 
their 'not invented here' syndrome and support the same platforms as 
Netscape, THEN I may switch. Until then, IE is simply not a strong enough 
reason to downgrade to Windows

There is a version of Explorer for one of the Unixes, but it will not work in Linux.

There is serious doubt that MS will port Explorer to Linux.

You could always run Explorer under Windows in a VMware virtual machine running on 
your Linux box, but that's too much trouble.

I've used Opera (win version) on and off for over a year.  It's pretty slick
and quite small (fits on a floppy).  It does cost $35 after the 30 trial
period.  I find it superior to Navigator, but not quite as polished as IE 5.0.
 It is the fastest of the bunch though :o)
