Description

The Symantec Browser Selector Object is an Internet Explorer Browser Add-on that provides the capability to define and enforce policies that stipulate that a specific version of an Internet Explorer browser is used to load a specific web site. This tool complements the capability of using Symantec Workspace Virtualization to run multiple versions of Internet Explorer "Side-by-Side". The tool can enforce the policy that Web sites that are designed to work with Internet Explorer 6 (IE6) will only be viewed with an instance of the IE6 browser, while other web sites will be viewed with a more current browser such as IE8.

The Browser Selector Object also provides the capability to define policies that stipulate that specific web sites will load an instance of the IE browser that is associated with a specific version of the Java JRE plugin. This is accomplished by forcing an instance of the Internet Explorer Browser to run within the context of the Java JRE running as a virtual application layer within Symantec Workspace Virtualization. With these policies in place, web sites that require versions of Java other than that installed natively on the system can continue to be supported.
