Hey Jenny
I don't know if this will help, but found this on the net the address is
below and found this on what is a web browser as for downloading I'm not
sure.
When you sit down and look at web pages, you are using a web browser. This
is the piece of software that communicates with
web servers
for you via the
HTTP
protocol, translates
HTML
pages and image data into a nicely formatted on-screen display, and presents
this information to your eyeballs -- or to your other senses, in the case of
browsers for the vision-impaired and other alternative interface
technologies. Web browsers also appear in simpler devices such as
Internet-connected cell
phones, like many Nokia models, and PDAs (Personal Digital Assistants) such
as the Palm Pilot.
The most common web browser, by a large margin, is
Microsoft Internet Explorer,
followed by the open-source
Firefox browser
and its relatives, including Netscape 6.0 and later. Apple's
Safari
browser is now the standard on Macintoshes (although Firefox is also a fine
choice on the Mac), and the
Opera
shareware browser has a loyal following among those who are willing to pay
for the fastest browser possible, especially on older computers. The
Lynx browser
is the most frequently used text-only browser and has been adapted to serve
the needs of the vision-impaired.
I got this off www.boutell.com/newfaq/definitions/browser.html
this may shed some light.
yours Jackie
