  • I have the FULL Original installer of version 5.00.2014.0216 in Spanish, but I tried to install it on Windows 3.11 (in DOSBox) and it was impossible.

    If it works for you, I can upload it, they are 118MB.
  • @CarlosAM you can install it on Windows 3.11 in 86box or PCem.
  • Claims to be. Click the lower right button with the down arrow. Approx 9MB.

    @FantaShokataNerd OK, thanks for the TIP, I'll try it.

    Here I uploaded the file:

    https://mega.nz/file/73xV0SQJ#7xKc6d1yU_asLHcFk6-lEJbK0b2b7ygphih-WRrIEnQ

    IE5SPA.rar (118MB)
    MD5 Checksum: 12651ab69ba3d298553fed711d76d8b6

    Internet Explorer 5.00.2014.0216 Spanish for Windows 3.1, NT4SP3 (includes SP4), 95, 98.

    I copied it from an old CD from Argentina called "Aprendiendo PC Internet". On the same CD there is also the update to version 5.50.4134.0600.
  • Clarification:

    The file I uploaded (118MB) is something "weird", because although it has the CABs for Windows 3.1 in the W31 folder, but the 16-BIT installer is not there. In Windows 95 it can be installed perfectly.

    I downloaded the link (from @02k-guy) to the 9MB file and it can be installed without problems in DOSBox. They are the CABs (same checksum) that I uploaded, with two missing (IEAK5OPT.CAB and PRESU.CAB).

    This installation in Windows 3.1 is listed as version 5.00.0913.2206.

    In short, whoever wants it for Windows 3.1, download the small file. For Windows 95 onwards, get the big one down.
  • Offtopic:
    Who know, exist or don't extst Russian IE5 for Win3.x?
    P.S. I know, that exist MUI, but my interest Russian-localization.
  • Sorry for necropost, but I am looking for Internet Explorer in spanish for Windows 3.1. The download from @CarlosAM is not active.

    Does anyone have this version and the 5.50.4134.0600 update?
  • Hi, if you still need the files, I can upload them again without any problem.

    Give me two or three days and I'll upload both versions.

    Look, I tested them on Windows 95, for Windows 3.1 doesn't have the 16-bit installer, but the CAB files are available.

    Best regards

    Hi,

    Thanks. I was able to find the CD, it's on Archive.org: https://archive.org/details/aprendiendo-pc-internet-curso

    It's not possible to install the Windows 3.1 version from that CD, the installer only works on Windows 95 and does not install if you already have Internet Explorer installed. I also don't know what IEAK5OPT.CAB and PRESU.CAB are used for, the other releases I found don't have those files. It is also missing IESETUP.DIR or the installer will try to download the files from Internet.

    It has version number 5.00.0913.2206, which is the newest I was able to find in Spanish.
    I have uploaded it here: Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.00.0913.2206 [Windows 3.1][Spanish].zip

    Does anyone know if there was a newer version for Windows 3.1?

    edit I also found an unofficial? update to 128 bit encryption here: gaby.de/ftp/pub/win3x/ie5/se128-16.exe

    This version of IE don't have https. If you want to use it without a proxy server use www.frogfind.com
  • Hi, I don't need to upload the files then, because the CD I have is the same one from archive.org, with a slightly different cover.

    I didn't know that it couldn't be installed over an older version of IE in Windows 95. When I tested it, I did it on a clean 95 in VirtualPC.

    Obviously, back in 1999, I used IE 5.0 and 5.5 on Windows 98 on a REAL PC.

    Of course, as I mentioned before, this IE doesn't have a 16-bit installer, so it can't be installed on Windows 3.1.

    For example, I never tried the problematic "Win32s" with IE in Windows 3.1.

    Tne old Win32s allowed running (a few) 32-bit applications on 16-bit systems.
