The "Freeola Customer Forum" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
My personal summaries on the main browsers:
>>> Microsoft Internet Explorer
If you use it, update (free) to version 6.
Pros: support for new types of scripting, ease of use, the fact that so many programmers are contributing to it. Diss Bill all you want, you have to admit, Microsoft does make some good stuff.
Cons: slow, temporary internet files folder, ability to customize... hard to do, no-one's there to tell you what to do.
>>> Netscape Navigator
Built using Mozilla, unless you want the space hogging apps of Netscape, use Mozilla.
>>> Mozilla
Keep up to date, heavy duty CSS support, I've heard, lack of features, I'm not talking about external apps.
>>> Opera
"Fastest browser on Earth?" Wrong, although it still is faster than IE, they have far less employees, (I assume), yet they seem to push further and expand their possibilities. Tabbing used instead of a thousand new taskbar tasks.
>>> Amaya
W3C (World Wide Web Compendium)'s Browser. Heavy duty CSS support, XHTML support, alright.
>>> XWebs
Created by a 17 year old. I have only heard news of it. I think it is beta testing still. Look out for it, supposedly faster than IE and previews look good. Search xwebs browser on google.

At least get your terminology right... It's World Wide Web CONSORTIUM. And as Rob pointed out, Mozilla rocks as a browser.

You can't win GAD here, don't bother.
You're wrong anyway, Mozilla is one of the fastest browsers on the market and has lots, lots more features than any of the others, including Opera.
