Supported Browsers
ComCept .Net is an Internet-based application, built on Internet Explorer and related Microsoft technologies. The version of Internet Explorer installed on user PCs is critical to the proper function of ComCept. Not all versions of Internet Explorer are available on all systems. ComCept makes every effort to support the latest two versions of Internet Explorer on all supported operating systems.
The following browsers are supported, list by operating system:

Upgrades
Customers with computers that do not meet minimum specifications must upgrade these computers. Internet Explorer is available at no charge to all Windows users. Additionally, some operating systems can be upgraded without buying a new computer, although Microsoft charges for Windows upgrades.
Upgrading Your Browser
Users can upgrade Internet Explorer to a newer version by simply visiting the Internet Explorer web site.

This link provides downloads for specific versions of Internet Explorer:

Users should select the highest version supported on their Operating System, unless there is a specific requirement to use the earlier version (online banking plug-ins, etc.)
Upgrading Windows
Computers that are not running a supported version of Windows can sometimes be upgraded to a newer version without buying a new PC, and without losing all your current files and setup. Very old computers will not be able to run newer versions of Windows, and consequently must be replaced with a new computer.
