LOL!
Alpha 1 of MSIE 3.0 didn't even come out until March 1996.[1]
MSIE 3.0 was released August 1996.
My MSIE 3.02 executable is dated June 4, 1997.

Tail end of 1997, yes.

March 1999.

No, my beef still is having to be aware of and work around bugs in a product
released 2.8 years ago. Fortunately, the number of users using that product
is getting lower and lower every day. Eventually, hopefully, someday the
workarounds can be dropped.
