It won but it was not the best browser. It was slower, and never fully met web standards. Many sites had to write different formatting code for IE specifically. It was a nightmare from the back end.
Yeah, but it just worked better. I remember doing all the cludges and hacks for IE. The bad taste in my mouth is still largely the reason I hate doing web ui work.
It’s interesting to see the similarities between the market when IE was king and now with chrome. I prefer to use Firefox, but there are just so many sites that only work with chrome. Etc.
