n. Another common name-of-insult for Internet Explorer, Microsoft's
overweight Web Browser; more hostile than Internet Exploder. Reflects
widespread hostility to Microsoft and a sense that it is seeking to hijack,
monopolize, and corrupt the Internet. Compare Exploder and the less
pejorative Netscrape.
