IE Welded into Windows
IE is welded into the Windows Operating System,
that is why Windows is so insecure and prone
to viruses/worms.

They thought by making IE basically explorer.exe
in concept they would ruin any competitor like
Netscape well they did in a way.

Interesting part of it is, they failed because
Firefox is the most popular browser, it is secure
hence it is not welded in and it actually works.

Good job MS, you derailed users without intending
to by trying to rampart them into Windows lockin.
