SUPER BROWSER!
MyIE2
get this browser! its the best thing i ever saw in my life! so much options for such a little software! its only 700k and it does more options then IE and netscape and opera all mixed! theres: -popup stopper -ad/content stopper -mouse controls(use it to do any options you want not just back and foward) -TABS!!!! -built-in search in the address bar(google or the one you want) -shortcut keys -ETC.... too many options to name them all! :D |
tried it once upon a time, and it seemed very good for the IE wrappers out there. Prefer to use a browser based on Presto or Gecko though personally.

Seriously though, the screenshot looks like it has WAY too many buttons to be productive, and it doesn't do anything that a browser based on FREEDOM doesn't also have the ability to do. |
i dunno, opera is pretty damn powerful.. if you know how to edit the ini files.
|
Opera is by far my favourite.
It does everything I could ever want. (Other than get me beer from the fridge) |
thing with MyIE2 is thats its only 700k. its got more options then opera and you'll know its compatible with all the websites out there.

Sincerely, as far as features, I can't find anything in MyIE2 that isn't available for Mozilla or Opera - can you provide some examples? |
does it block all of IE's security holes? that would be cool.
|
I dont think ill ever give up Firebird. It has all those features myIE2 has, along with complete customizablilty(as in downloadable themes and extensions). It is also very sleek and fast (Non-bloated), and dosnt have all the security issues IE has.

well theres alot of options: popup/ad/content stopper. tabs, mouse controls(give it any options you want instead of just back and foward), groups, auto scrolling, undo button, utility tool bar, google(or any search engine) addressbar, auto translate page, and more...

edit: and before any moz zealots point this out, yes there is the fact you have already "paid" for MyIE2 by purchasing IE with windows and the free version of Opera is ad-sponsored. And of course the gecko family is open source. having said that, I would say use whatever works for you; personally I will not touch Explorer for a looong list of reasons. |
I use MyIE and wouldn't go without it now. I used to use Opera but got fed up with sites that wouldn't load properly. I even had some java probs in IE that are cleared up in MyIE. The groups feature is simply outstanding. I also love the fact that when you open MyIE it asks whether you'd like to open all previously opened sites. If you think that there are too many buttons, you can always customize and remove the ones you don't want.
I've never tried Mozilla so can't give any thoughts on that. But MyIE absolutely rules IMHO. |
My point is not to say that MyIE2 is bad by any means really. Besides the security problems with IE, I'd say use whatever suits you. Only trying to point out that these features have long been in other browsers and are just now getting to IE - and not even through an official release. I'm not sure what you mean by groups, but I do know that moz and opera both have every other option you listed there.
|
The Groups feature in MyIE allows you to set up a group of websites, say your favorite sports news sites, as a single group. Then when you click on the Sports News group, each of the sites you placed in that group opens in a different tabbed window.
And you're correct about Opera having MOST of the same features (no groups), but like I said, Opera screwed up the look of enough sites to make me give it up. And you need to view ads if you don't want to pay for it. |
I am using Opera 7.11 and it is able to group websites...you just ahve to choose to bookmark all and then select "Open all in selected folder."
As for the ability to customise different gestures...that sounds interesting...I dont think Opera does that... The cons to opera that I have found have been that it does seem to have problems loading some pages (probably forced MS compatible ones.) MyIE2 sounds cool...but it will have a tough time beating Opera for me...I might check it out. :) |

what...IE and Microsoft products have holes in them? Never!!! ;)

I don't know I'm pretty confortable with mozilla. It pretty much does all of what you said, and for 56k it seems faster.
|
Mozilla still roxors.

I ran Opera for a while, but liked the feel of Firebird better, so I moved back. |
Another great MyIE2 feature is that when you type an address like say www.yahoo.com, you only need to type "yahoo" and then hit Ctrl-Enter for it to automatically add the "www" and ".com". These keystrokes are all customizable to add .com, .net, .org, etc.
I don't know whether Mozilla or Opera has this but I love it. |
with opera, you don't even have to do ctrl-enter, you can just put in yahoo, and if it doesn't resolve immediately, it'll add www and com (or any other ending you want).
btw IE does this naturally anyway.. you don't need MyIE2 to get it. =). |

for me IE 6 does it when you press ctrl-enter. just the one that comes with xp pro. maybe i added it to the registry a long time ago on my own.. that could also be.
|
i'm also a firebird user, but that other broswer IE2 dose seem cluttered, perhaps i'll try it i mean why not i got like 4 other brosers on my comp?
|
O.K. The auto scroll,fullscreen,and auto-hide features are great for the titty board. I'll use Mozilla Firebird when I'm not horny.
|
I've been using Avant Browser for about a week now, and I'm liking it.
Nice feature-----hold right, click left mouse buttons to go back, hold left, click right to go forward. |
Yep, its all about Opera. I switched about a week ago and I love it so far. Takes some getting used to, but its great.
