D Correct answer
Explanation

The browser that revolutionized tabbed browsing was Opera, which introduced the feature in 2000 with Opera 4.0 and popularized it through Opera 5.0 in 2000. Internet Explorer didn't have tabs until much later (IE7 in 2006), Google Chrome didn't exist until 2008 (though it refined tabs), and Maxthon (formerly MyIE2) was a tabbed IE shell but not the innovator. Since Opera isn't listed, 'None of the above' is correct.
