Windows ME Compatible Browsers

Windows ME was the final version of the Windows 98 operating system that Microsoft released prior to coming out with Windows XP. Due to this fact, there are limitations as to the browsers that will function well on this platform. The latest versions of Internet Explorer, Firefox and Google Chrome will not work on Windows ME, but older versions of several browsers will. They are all available for download.

Most Popular Browser for Windows ME

Windows ME was not a widely successful operating system and often unfavorably compared to Windows 98 SE that preceded it. At the same time, Microsoft's version of Internet Explorer, version 6 especially, had problems of its own. The best widely used browser for Windows ME was Firefox, which was then known as Netscape Navigator version 4. Netscape Navigator later became Netscape Communicator version 5, then Firefox.

Other Browsers

There are many browsers on the market, and they all have gone through various revisions over time. Several will perform well on Windows ME with even their latest versions of the browser. A good example of this is Opera, which supports all Windows systems in its current release. Others that may work well for ME include Apple's Safari browser, Ace Explorer, Off by One, TheWorld Browser, the Avant Browser, and so on.
