There is no current version of internet Explorer available for the Mac. Internet Explorer for the Mac was discontinued in 2003 and Microsoft recommends "that users migrate to more recent web browsing technologies such as Apple's Safari." Other alternatives (that are faster and safer than Internet Explorer) include FireFox, Chrome or Opera. (See links below)

It is possible to download Internet Explorer for a Mac the same as with any other computer. When downloading, one just has to make sure to download the Mac version as opposed to the PC version.

Although Internet Explorer was Microsoft's web browser designed to run on Mac computers, they now use a different system that is no longer compatible with the system that Mac has so it is no longer downloadable for Macs.
