A web browser is a program that you can run on your computer that will
display pages from the World Wide Web. You are using a web browser right
now to look at this page. There are many popular web browsers:
<DL>
<DT><B><A HREF="
http://lynx.browser.org/">Lynx</A></B>
<DD>Lynx was one of the first web browsers. It is text-only, so it can't
display pictures, however it can run on almost any computer. Most <A
HREF="i_freenet.html">FreeNets</A> use Lynx because it doesn't require a
very powerful computer.
<DT><B><A HREF="
http://www.ncsa.uiuc.edu/SDG/Software/Mosaic/">Mosaic</A></B>
<DD>Mosaic was the first popular graphical web browser. It was created by
NSCA so that people could use the new WWW Internet protocol to its full
advantage.
<DT><B><A HREF="
http://home.netscape.com/">Netscape</A></B>
<DD>Netscape is a browser that extended the WWW with a large number of
custom tags. It is one of the most popular graphical browsers since many
web sites are designed to look best when using Netscape.
<DT><B><A HREF="
http://www.microsoft.com/ie/">Explorer</A></B>
<DD>Microsoft's Internet Explorer is the most recent addition to the list of
popular web browsers. It is virtually identical to Netscape's browser at the
moment.
</DL>
Other browsers include HotJava (first to use Java), the Emacs W3 browser (text-only),
and Arachne (graphical browser for DOS). Most of these browsers may be downloaded
from the Internet for free, see

for more details.
