In the early 2000's, IE was really the only viable option. Nobody else provided a fully functional browser. Netscape was rotting. Safari, Firefox, Chrome were not yet released. If you wanted something that worked and didn't crash every 30 minutes, IE was it.

Am I the only one who remembers Opera? Granted it was much more niche than Firefox.

But this conspiracy is talking about a time when Chrome existed.
