Actually, I'm not convinced that the other answer is correct - "Advanced Segments" is a short name for "Visits with the following properties...', and the segment described in the other answer will find all visits which contained the specified page, and does not confine reports to that single page.

To see the history of that page with respect to a specific browser (in this case Internet Explorer), set up an Advanced Segment for IE-only traffic (in the Systems group of dimensions, drag the Browser dimension to the box, keep Matches Exactly and select Internet Explorer from the Value dropdown). Then Name & save the segment.

Then navigate to Content/Content Drilldown, locate & click on the page in question (or arrange the filters such that it's the only page in the table, I like the tabular view) - I usually use the search box. Then apply the IE-only customer segment via the dropbox at the upper right. This now shows the IE traffic alongside the total traffic, and you can manipulate the graph to see how various metrics have changed over time.

There's also a (limited) no-segment method. With all advanced segments disabled, set the Secondary Dimension dropdown (it's at the top of the table, to the right of 'Page') to Browser, then employ filters so that only the desired URL is displayed. This gives the information in tabular form, but you cannot see how the performance of a single browser varies over time.
