its no more than a IE shell with a news reader and gnutella shoved in

and this made me laugh from the bbc thing they linked to

So we chose IE's render engine for two simple reasons. One: it is more compatible with most websites than Firefox; and secondly, we always believed IE's engine was secure, although it has security problems it was secure.

It isn't new. Read the change log and you can see it has been around for a little while.

I think the main reason they say it's a lot more secure is because it stops phishing. It updates websites, the engine etc every time you browse.

I've had a go at it and it's alright. I'll just stick to the browser I have now :)

I am going to check it out now, even if it isn't new, I have never heard of it in my life!

I seriously doubt if it is any better than firefox, it just looks like a small company trying to beat the "big" companies.


Okay, I have used the browser and I can quite honestly say that it is rubbish, it isn't user-friendly at all, and the news feed sucks. I can't even believe that they have a p2p client inbedded into it either, how illegal can you get?!

RE: New Internet Browser!
On the topic of new browsers, here is one you guys might like. It is based on the Mozilla Engine. Made by Anderson (Avant Browser) it puts a lot of Avant features into use while using the Mozilla engine. Which is great because that is one of a few things FireFox needs improvement in, more features!

It's an alpha release so be careful with it.

That is cool, I might download that and try it out, if it is as good as firefox, then I might use it.

I won't lie, I do use P2P Clients, but having one inbedded into a browser to try and make people download it is just lame, if they won't to be a good browser, they should just stay legit!

It's pretty good actually. I like it. I've uninstalled Firefox as my third browser and am using this one instead. Very nice for an alpha release. The bugs will probably start showing up later on ;)
