Web Browsers Support Center
A Web browser is a software application used to access and display documents hosted on a Web server. Web browsers communicate with servers primarily through HTTP (hyper text transfer protocol). Web browsers locate Web pages using an address known as a URL (uniform resource locator). Some common Web browsers include Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Netscape Navigator, and Apple's Safari.
