Product:

Avant Browser

Version: 10.0 build 168

I.E 6.0, Netscape, Firefox, Opera. I've tried them all and this is my favourite!

Pros: 1: Very reliable. Even when a bug does appear, it is usually fixed within the week.

2: Updates are frequent and small. This means that it never takes long time to update the product and this is also the main reason for nr.1.

3: It is completely and utterly free. It is not even supported by ad-ware or other ads.

4: The ad-filter is highly effective and works nearly as good as any professional ad-blocker.

5: The pop-up blocker is very efficient. Actually it can be a little too efficient at times, but this is rarely a bother and you can with the click of a button turn it off at any time.

6: It has many options which enables you to get the best possible surfing experience, while at the same time most of the options are understandable for those who are not computer geeks.

7: The browler has a very fast loading rate.

8: The all important multi-page browsing ability is of course included.

9: Surprisingly resistant towards malicious files on websites. It is even immune to having changes made to it by such files.

10: Has the almost unique possibility to have as many homepages as you want.

Cons: 1: Requires the sourcefiles of I.E. 6:0 to run.

2: Memory problems is a bug that has been returning, but it is usually fixed in the next update.

Smartalec Voyager 6000

Version: 4.6

It'll get good, just trust me.

It has a few bugs, but once they are sorted out you'll have the best alternative out there as of yet. It uses the IE engine as it's basis so only Windows users will have access to it. But that also makes it smaller than most other browsers. It gives you a bigger view of the page than any other I've seen and it also includes speed maximisers and pop-up killers. Even then it's not over crowded with features that is needed to make it run. Actually to run it you browse it like normal IE. The most annoying bug is that you have to restart the browser to get it to add anything to your favourites. That is annoying, but then again one bug is a lot better than most other browsers (like IE, Netscape, Oprah...) who has plenty of them.
