I dont. its an IE shell and it does nothing that other good browsers cant do

RE: Browzar by Lourix on 09-03-2006 at 06:43 AM

But it has privacy thats a good point for people.

RE: Browzar by ddunk on 09-03-2006 at 06:59 AM

It's still just IE with some "added" features (they're already in IE, just not enabled by default).

IE already has this nice little feature called "Empty Temporary Internet Files folder when browser is closed" and you can tell it not to keep history.

i was about to post that ff is still the best browser available...

EDIT: and maybe opera 9, but i never had time to test it

RE: Browzar by alexp2_ad on 09-03-2006 at 09:21 AM

In fairness, I don't think it's "Full of Adware", it forces it's homepage on you, which has adverts on it.  It doesn't install any adware, it just doesn't let you change the homepage in Browzar from their ad covered search.

Sure, it's just an IE wrapper, and a pointless piece of turd, but it isn't "full of adware".

it looks alright not downloading it im happy with firefox

RE: Browzar by linx05 on 09-03-2006 at 09:58 AM

It doesn't look too good. I might give it a try another day. It just doesn't look that feature filled. Plus Maxthon can clean all the data away.

In every browser I've used, there are + and - :(

RE: Browzar by boston on 09-03-2006 at 06:03 PM

ive got it
its okay
doesnt need installing
i like it
but nothing beats Firefox

RE: Browzar by ForestPlus! on 09-03-2006 at 06:05 PM

Pigwash. The only bad thing about it is the fact you can't change homepage, and can't change the theme. It's a fantastic browser, and i have had no problems with it since :)
