Internet Explorer 5.5

Internet Explorer 5.5 was released in June 2000. Support for the 16-bit Windows 3.1x and the 32-bit Windows NT 3.51 were dropped in this release. The 32-bit version was made available for Windows 95, Windows NT 4.0 and higher. Some minor updates are also added, including increasing the Cipher strength to 128-bit on Windows 9x. This version is the last version that officially supports Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0 without Service Pack 6a.

A near-final pre-release version is included in the RTM release of Windows Me.
