I need a browser to run some software for our church
Sunday school - simple games run on a browser - no
internet access required. These are old machines with
Windows 95 on them. Did the Windows 95 installation CD
have a version of Internet Explorer on it? If so, how
would I install it?

Thanks,

Not all versions of Win95 had IE. AFAIK, only OEM versions apart from
a Plus! version
It should have installed with Win95 if there.
You can easily get a copy of an old IE here:

Win95 did contain a very early version of IE

i suggest you just go to www.offbyone.com
and download a browser there

it is small enough to transfer over to your other machine
on just *one* floppy

even though it;s a small browser...it;s pretty good
