    I've been seeing it in my webstats. But it would take a lot to convince me to use that over firefox or IE

    I just downloaded it today, it looks damm good to me.

    I think the new version was just released a couple days ago, again, I run 3 browsers now.

    IE, Netscape and now this one. You can switch off you know.

    Looks basically just like MyIE2 (which is what I use). Just another tabbed, IE clone.

    What is IE2, do you have download links, is it a M$ product?

    Must say I'd never heard of or seen MyIE2 until now - thanks dazzlindonna... I shall have to take it out for a thrash :D

    Firefox is still my personal #1 - for me the webdev tool plug-in is rather handy...

    I have been using MYIE2 for almost 8 months, it is by far my favorite browser and I recommend you give it a shot. Lots of little tweaks that I love.

    I really like it too Dazz. It loads FAR faster than Firefox, and has many of the same features.

    Nothing new neither, been around for a while.

    I used it for a few weeks and found it slower downloading pages than IE. So I've uninstalled it.. why pay for broadband when you are being slowed down by underperforming browsers.

    I will tell you that it is a great browser, I just installed it today, it is able to show all of your favorites on a large screen.

    IE could not even display or render my favorites properly since I had so many folders and files within.

    Each browser has advantages and disadvantages, I tried the MYIE2 and did not like that one.

    So to each his own, my review of the Avant Browser is a good one.

    Search is a double edge sword.

    Don't use it and people will point out how many threads on the topic you started a thread for already exist.

    Use it and post in an old thread and people say...
