The Internet explorer for Mac OS X computer systems has now become an extinct version after Microsoft decided to freeze this production in the month of June,1993. The Internet Explorer for Mac computer systems was finally withdrawn from market on the 31 st of December, 2005. The termination of the project was chiefly due to the tough competition that Internet Explorer for Mac was facing due to the launch of Apple's Safari web browser. Microsoft had originally an independent version of the Internet Explorer, which enabled installation both on Windows and Macintosh computer systems. However later the Internet Explorer versions were specialized according to the operating systems.
A typical modern web browser is one which allows you to surf through multiple websites with ease, gives you the scope to exchange e-mails, save addresses, view graphical and text based programs, etc.

• Scrapbook: The user could save the pages in desired file systems with the help of the scrapbook facility.
• Auction Manager feature: This would help clients avail a direct access to ebay.
• PNG support system: A robust PNG support system added in the last version of Internet explorer for Mac.
• Print Preview option allowed the users to adjust the font-size before you get the final printout
• Page Holder Sidebar: This option would let a user hold a page in the sidebar and load the chosen links in the main browser window.
• Browser History: The browser history gives you the advantage of quick viewing of the web pages you have recently viewed.
