Explored was written decades ago. It was very vulnerable to viruses and not able to cope with modern web pages. It was an application for the days of dial up and limited web page functionality. It was full of patches, and like a worn out tire, there was just nothing worth saving.
I personally like Firefox. I am not a big fan of Google products since I suspect their biggest push is to gather data on the user. I so expect all the free web browsers do that to some extent.
So in the end, just like Windows 95 once had people standing in lines to buy a copy at the computer store, its time has passed.
