AOL planning a new browser

October 11th, 2004 · View Comments · marketing, software

It does not get any more ridiculous than this… AOL has communicator which is made from the Mozilla code but they opt to go with IE which has not been updated in years when they release a stand-alone browser product.

It appears that AOL will be releasing its own branded browser for its subscribers. Surprisingly, “AOL Browser” (its real name) will be based on Internet Explorer instead of the Mozilla derivative Netscape, which AOL owns. [Ars Technica]
