NetCruiser browser

This page was last updated at: Mar 13, 2026

NetCruiser was a vintage Desktop web browser that ran on Windows. It was developed for about 3 years before being discontinued. NetCruiser's website doesn't work any more, but there is a saved copy of it on archive.org.

Very hard to find information about this; apparently it ran on Windows, Mac, and there was a version which ran on the "Pippin Atmark", which was a Japanese video game console; making it one of the very first browsers to run on a game console.
