This is the same as asking it Television is a good thing. It really depends on who you are and what you are expecting to get from it. TV can be seen as a bod thing if you become too dependant on it for your daily life and your daily learning. The TV has been viewed as a "goggle box" that leads to the destruction of the viewers mind, it has also been seen as an educational tool. If we think about TV a little bit we can see that watching so called "pulp" TV shows (with little educational value) too often (or always) could be a bad thing, but then if we think about TV as being educational we can see that most schools and teachers show it to kids to educate them (ie: National Geographic, PBS etc.) The same goes for the Internet (pls note: capital I not lowercase because in this case it is a proper noun). So the answer comes down to what you watch on the net and not the net itself. It's a bit like the gun debate: (ie: guns don't kill people, people kill people). So regards the Internet, it's not the net that is the problem, it is the content on the net that can be the problem.

What are the benefits of internet explorer?
The web browser that you are using to visit that site - the same web browser that you may well be using to visit every other site - has the power to download and install "updates" to the operating system. It has the power to alter and modify the operating system.
As easily as Internet Explorer can download and install legitimate operating system updates from Microsoft, it can just as easily download and install malicious software pretending to be legitimate updates, from any other web site. Answer: Internet Explorer advantages: # Internet Explorer 4 is built into Windows. This is true whether you add IE 4 to Windows 95 or just use IE 4 in Windows 98. (Much of the added attraction of Windows 98 is actually added by Internet Explorer 4, so upgrading to IE 4 under Windows 95 gives you a kinda-sorta Windows 97 1/2.)
Because of this tight integration, every file-and-folder window becomes a browser window. You never need to run the Web browser separately. If you have a window open showing, say, the My Documents folder, you can change the view of your local documents to a view of a Web site just by typing a Web address in the address line at the top of the My Documents window.
This makes sense to me. You can ignore this feature and run the browser the standard way, of course, but why would you want to? Your file-and-folder window is a browser window already. # IE 4 uses all the regular Windows keyboard shortcuts. This can be very helpful if you do a lot of Web browsing, because you don't have to learn new ways of doing things with the keyboard. Hit the Backspace key and you back up to the previous folder in your hard drive or the previous page in IE 4, to give one example. Common keystrokes just plain make sense. # Java applets (small programs) run much better through IE 4 than through Netscape's browser. IE 4 also does Java a lot faster. # IE 4 uses real shortcut files for its Internet "bookmarks." You can edit them, copy them, put them on a floppy or send them by e-mail. They're files and not some sort of mystery meat the way Netscape's "bookmarks" are.
How does one install Active X Control?
If you already have Internet Explorer installed on your computer, than you have Active X control already installed. If you do not have Internet Explorer installed, then download Internet Explorer from Microsoft's website and install it.
In its simplest terms, a browser enables one to retrieve information from the World Wide Web. Therefore, a default browser is the browser that starts up automatically when you click on a link in another program. The default browser opens links to websites that appear outside of web browsers, like links in an email program or liinks saved to your desktop.

What can you use instead of internet explorer?
Google browser has one advantage: It is so simple that it doesn't use much ram. However, this comes at a cost of features (and aesthetic looks too). I personally would use Internet Explorer instead of Google Browser. I also don't trust Google not to keep tabs on whatever sites I go to; their main source of revenue is targeted ads, so they want to know what I like. I prefer Firefox (3 beta) with AdBlock Plus so I get a quick and secure and feature-packed and nice-looking browser without any ads at all.
What are the parts of internet window?
Internet Explorer consists of several major components, each of which is contained in a separate Dynamic-link library (DLL) and exposes a set of COM programming interfaces hosted by the Internet Explorer main executable, iexplore.exe:
- WinInet.dll is the protocol handler for HTTP, HTTPS and FTP. It handles all network communication over these protocols.
- URLMon.dll is responsible for MIME-type handling and download of web content, and provides a thread-safe wrapper around WinInet.dll and other protocol implementations.
- MSHTML.dll houses the Trident rendering engine introduced in Internet Explorer 4, which is responsible for displaying the pages on-screen and handling the Document Object Model of the web pages. MSHTML.dll parses the HTML/CSS file and creates the internal DOM tree representation of it. It also exposes a set of APIs for runtime inspection and modification of the DOM tree. The DOM tree is further processed by a layout engine which then renders the internal representation on screen.
- IEFrame.dll contains the user interface and window of IE in Internet Explorer 7 and above.
- ShDocVw.dll provides the navigation, local caching and history functionalities for the browser.
- BrowseUI.dll is responsible for the browser user interface, including the browser chrome, which houses all the menus and toolbars.
