Multilanguage Plug-in Software

[Jim Campbell]

Since version 3.0 of Microsoft's Internet Explorer is now available only
for Windows 95 and NT, it probably doesn't help you, but it has excellent
support for Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Cyrillic, and the eastern European
diacritics. No Hebrew or Arabic. You have to choose the language, but it
recognizes which encoding scheme is being used and displays it.

After downloading the appropriate version of 3.0, you have to go back to
the Microsoft site and also download and install the "International
Extensions."
