I don’t remember what it did though. I think it wasn’t the browser, and I have a vague memory it wasn’t for dial up either, but my memory’s shit so I personally wouldn’t trust me on that
Edit: had to look this up, it was IE. I think I didn’t remember it because I never really used IE since I started off with NCSA Mosaic and then Netscape
It just means that they called their browser “the internet” right? Or am I missing something here?
It was an actual icon:

I have a vague memory of the browser icon having the name “Internet” back in the day. Or maybe it was the dial-up icon. Might be that?
The original “Internet Explorer” icon was a globe and magnifying glass, with the text “The Internet,” underneath
