Mozilla has the fox-like character as the logo and icon on their browser, making it the perfect mascot and tag for the internet browser. Whenever people see or hear of fox, they immediately associate it with the browser. It seems that the guys at Redmond thought it was time for a change and unveiled a brand new mascot for Internet Explorer as well, but it’s bot an animal like character, but an anime character.
Her name is Inori Aizawa and she has her own Facebook page. On it, she introduces herself as the artistic representation of Internet Explorer. She also lists Hikaru, Microsoft’s Silverlight mascot, as her cousin and says she’s close friends with Nanami, Windows 7, and Yuu and Ai, Windows 8. Inori tells us that she likes surfing the Internet, HMTL5, karaoke, cats, and mint-flavored ice cream. She has her own email address – inor.aizawa@outlook.com – and is 18 years old, her birthday being the same as the date on which the first version of Internet Explorer was released.
At the end, Inori tells us about her clumsiness and the fact she was “slow”, but has since matured and is confident in her abilities. Her Facebook page can be viewed here.
Thank you Tom’s Hardware for providing us with this information
