How do I get internet explorer on a Mac? I'm new. Does it come with Explorer or do I have to download it, and is it free? Does it work well with Macs?
Got a tip for us?

Internet Explorer for Mac

It's free, it comes with the computer, and it works okay. Safari and Firefox are also free and are better--mostly because of tabs and pop-up blocking.
I like Explorer on the Mac a lot better than on Windows, but it's still Explorer.

The last version of IE released for Mac was 5.2.3, and it has now been discontinued. For this reason, I would not recommend using it unless a site doesn't work in other browsers. There are at least 10 free OS X browsers, and IMO there are quite a few that are better than IE. Like HorrorTaxi, I'd recommend Safari or Firefox.
