Because it has a powerful anti-phishing feature.

Its really hard to use and is basicly IE but with a few pointless extras thrown in. It basicly sucks. I will never change from firefox.

I tried out the Firefox/Avant browser, and I didn't really like it, so I'll be sticking to firefox. To be honest, I haven't yet found a substitute for firefox, as firefox is so simple and has a nice user interface, it is all I need really...

I just wish it had RSS Feeds .

The only thing that loks good on this browser is grouped tabs. Oh how that is so good
Can FireFox do that?

EDIT: Actually, this sucks. Though it is better than IE

what do you mean by that? it has livebookmarks or are you asking for something more powerfull?

Something more powerful really, I don't like using Desktop Widgets or anything to do the job... Going onto Google.com/ig to check out my favourite feeds is just annoying aswell.

Insted of giving a browser lots of publicity because it has "a powerful anti-phishing feature" the press should remind people of the long lost thing called common sense, which also happens to be the best anti phishing feature you can have. I hate the way that products are going, they are just providing things that wouldnt be needed if you provided some simple education about the internet.[/rant]

Im happly going to stick to firefox and my common sense

Deepnet's been around for ages.

I really wish people would actually understand that P2Ps aren't illegal, misuseing them to download copyrighted material is, the P2P itself is perfectly legal.

Anyway, this browser is only going to be downloaded by less computer literate users who like all the new P2Ps and jazzy stuff. I mean the browser is supposed to be resistent to exploits and phising but at the same time it bundles a P2P, and P2Ps are quite easy to find exploits in...the only reason this browser can claim to be secure is because it's so unwidely used that no one is going to spend time trying to find exploits.
