I've tried a lot of different browsers in my days. Right now I'm currently using IE6 & Opera 7.21. All of the ones I've tried said they were the fastest going. Bull, I always ended back with IE6 after about 10 minutes with them. I just stumbled across this new one, at least new to me and it actually is really fast and so far seems to display pages real good. Better than Opera actually. I haven't read much about it yet but it seems to be based on IE. It automatically imports everything. The only fault I've found so far is that you can't change an icon in your links folder in favorites, but that's not a big deal. Here's the l;ink in case anyone wants to give it a try. By the way it's free. www.avantbrowser.com/

i cant remember if it was here or at the pit, but I posted but about 6 months ago (before I went to W2K) I posted that avant was probably among the best(along with mozilla) in my opinion. 2nd opinions are nice

It sure loads pages fast. All video, sounds, flash, java, everything works just like IE6.

seems a "little" faster...
the only problem I have been able to identify is that ZA pro is unable to block regular 3rd party ad links like it does in IE (god forbid!!!! that I would ever do that though! I LOVE ads!)
Also I am unable to integrate Copernic into it as my search engine.... google is alright if you like "sponsored site" links, tracking cookies, and lots of ads (but we LOVE ads! don't we?), but I find Copernic to be more to my liking!

I just downloaded and tried myie2 yesterday and really like it. I know it just uses the IE core, but, I am really impressed with its features and its quickness, as long as you turn off the splash screen in the begining.

I have a prety hard time switching browsers, I hate learning new stuff if I dont have to. Point and click, thats what I like.

Its pretty much like IE, just more options that I like, but the basic layout is the same.
