ZDNet reports that AOL is “quietly testing software that could end exclusive support for
Microsoft’s Internet Explorer Web browser in future versions of its online services,
signaling a growing fissure in an already strained relationship.”

The software would allow America Online and
CompuServe to support multiple Web browsers, including AOL Time Warner’s Netscape
products. Gee, use your own browser in your online services? How revolutionary!
