It won’t run on new puters due to the fact it was originally a 98SE browser(DOS based). They started killing off the old DOS instructions in XP and the newer processors were not designed for backwards compatibility to understand it. Even now the processor manufacturers are killing off the backwards compatibility to Win7. IE5 will run in XP so if you have to go to a dual boot and you can try to load either 98SE or XP on as the dual boot and redownload IE5. Problem I think you are going to run into is that none of the machines made past XP are going to be able to run a mostly DOS based browser instructions.
