Netscape Navigator came before Internet Explorer.

You're right and I got my reference slightly mixed up: "The name "Konqueror" is a reference to the two primary competitors at the time of the browser's first release: "first comes the Navigator, then Explorer, and then the Konqueror". It also follows the KDE naming convention: the names of most KDE programs begin with the letter K.[1]"

Last used Chrome in like 2011. Opera ever since. Firefox was cool but didn't have the performance I needed.
