    Well I’m back after writing the wacky opinion on fonetastic.com. I’ll be resuming my normal style of writing as people thought I went MAD!!! What can I say MSN have done it again, yes it’s not MSN Messenger but they have developed a brand new browser called MSN EXPLORER!! Yes a new browser that has it all. Are you a regular hotmail user or messenger users then gets rid of Internet Explorer or Netscape browser and download the new browser in town. The browser that has many built in functions to make your life easier. So where do you start from? Well if you are a hotmail user ... more

    This is another one of microsofts great inventions but this one doesnt cost! Its free easy and stylish. now for the features; browser; as well as being a gateway to loads of msn products msn explorer is also an online browser. You can surf the net using a stylish window instaead of the grey of internet explorer. ALthough perhaps the window is more stylish you do lose space. about 2.5 inches from the sides and a whopping 2.5 inches from the top. there is a way to make it so there is only .5 inch lost from the sides but i havnt worked out how. ALthough you do lose a lot of space off the browser ... more

    Advantages Advantages Good Interface

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Persumes you use Hotmail

    I downloaded MSN explorer a while back now, and I was amazed at how good the browser actually is. MSN explorer is packed with some great features, Okay, these can also be accessed via the MSN.co.uk website, but MSN Explorer makes them all easily accessable, and you don't need to keep signing in to the passport. MSN Photos. This, in my opinion, is one of the best online photo albums around. Its accessable from the navigation bar, and allows you to upload your photos onto the web in your personal album. You can also share photos with friends and family if you so wish, and you can order prints ... more

    Advantages Advantages Enhances Hotmail or MSN, stable, reliable, lots of features

    Disadvantages Disadvantages none as yet.

    If like me you are fed up with Internet Explorer crashing, errors, pages not found and the rest, then I have the perfect alternative for you. MSN explorer is the Hotmail/Msn users best friend, it has now been re-modelled into the perfect partner for your surfing needs. I must stress here though that it is really only for people who have hotmail or chat on MSN, as you do need to sign up to hotmail to use it, but you could still do that just for using explorer only if you wish. Msn explorer can be found at www.home.msn.co.uk, the download itself is fairly large at 5.70mb, but it only took me 20 ... more

    Advantages Advantages Very pleasant interface and tie-in with MSN Messenger

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Slow, cumbersome, poorly laid out, too simplified

    For many people the Internet can be daunting not only because of its complexity, but also the many different programs you have to load to do different things. For a beginner, it is hard to remember when to load the browser, the e-mail client or the how to find anything on the Internet. The friendly people at the Microsoft Network have come up with a solution – MSN Explorer. This is the “one man band” of web browsers, which incorporates an e-mail client, media player (internet media only), search (on MSN naturally!) and links to various MSN sites. It also contains the usual Favourites and ... more
