Mornin' Mark,

Yep, that's the way it played out.

When I first got on the 'net, is was all in DOS format.

Ya had to type a command to even get the modem to "wake up", let alone dial; still another command to make it dial up and then, after typing another twenty commands later, you finally got to where you were going. What a hassle! :>)

When that first little Mozilla program came out, wow! What an impovement! Even tho it couldn't, by itself, "connect" to the 'net, it let you look at the world in a windows format. (I think I still have that original version laying around here somewhere).

Then along came Netscape and it was even better yet.

Then the wars started when our uncle Bill rewrote Mozilla to fit his view of the world and how it should play out; he called it Internet Explorer.

About three versions later, he laced it right in with his operating system. (That's when things really started gitting stinky & all the lawsuits started!)

Anyway, all browsers are an offshoot of that first original Mozilla browser.
