Another Browser for Us??

http://www.ioage.com/en/index.htm another browser for the masses(also posted in updates)
just download it and is very fast at loading pages and etc.-i like it 8)
just trying to figure the security end of it ???

For me this is just what seems another IE cline, dressed up in a pretty skin, otherwise how could it reasonably be a stand alone browser with a download size of just 485KB. It also has activeX integration and that was one of the major reasons I went to firefox.

The Bad

There still are issues to be considered and one of them is allowing the user much more freedom in configuring the ad-filter. But this is a problem with most browsers.

A help file wouldn’t hurt a bit. Some of the users may feel the need of reading the explanation of the options as the developer intended them to be used.

Support for English in the forum would expand the market niche and more users will be able to contribute to its development.

The resource use is still pretty high. I opened a single tab and TheWorld Browser asked a bit over 55MB tribute. It is true that IE7 was a little under this value, but Maxthon ate only 46MB with four tabs opened.

The download tool provided by the program does not estimate the downloading time.

TheWorld Browser is base on the Microsoft Internet Explorer engine with additional features. It can work under Windows 98/Me/2000/XP.

This would appear to confirm my first thoughts about being a clone, with the potential for IE vulnerabilities. So I doubt it will see the light of day on my system.

Hi Dan,

What did you read in that fortune cookie? Because now you are proposing a browser from Bejing, China. That must have been a good Chinese dinner, my friend…big fried Chinese prawns in sweet sour sauce, Chinese miehoon, lichee fruit with vanilla ice and clotted cream. So that is why you now come up with a Chinese IE shell browser. Hope it is different from Browzar, but at 1232,1 K it is a wrapper really.

Unfortunately just another IE skin.
At least with IE I can use SiteAdvisor and finjan. :slight_smile:
I also see no way to add the GoogleTollbar or any other add-ons.
As David already mentioned, it’s pretty. ;D

didn’t say i was gonna use it-just trying it out(like i’m sure i’m not the only one on the forum that just try’s things out being curious) ::)…still stuck with my ie clone for a long time-avant and my fox and opera ;D
and yes damian i did have chinese food for lunch today after our pm discussion :slight_smile:
won’t say want my fortune cookie said ::slight_smile:

Firefox or Opera forever 8)
Oh, to Polonus: Flock forever 8)


I did some browser testing on this forum a couple of years ago. Of course, these recent browsers Dan has mentioned were not part of the testing back then. But, if this one is just a pretty skin for IE7 with a few extras, guess I will pass on it since I already have a nice skin for IE7. Besides, Opera has won me over as my main browser. :slight_smile:


And to minacross, SeaMonkey forever :wink: ;D

firefox and my long time ie clone avant :wink:
and waiting for the safari final ??? ::slight_smile:

charleyO how do you skin ie7?


Hi Bri -

Honestly, I do not remember where I got this skin from but it was from a link someone posted in one of the forums here.

EDIT

Just after posting the above, I remembered it was from a posting by YLAP. So, I went searching and found the link. Be sure to read all of the thread as there is needed info in it.

I have to agree with the Firefox fans. Firefox is the best browser I have had the PLEASURE of using, unlike clunky IE7 which was redesigned for the worse. Moreover, Firefox has a portable version, and, correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t believe IE has one of those… :wink:

Believe I’ll pass on this. Already have several good browsers. :wink:

thanks charleyO,installed no problems nice

No, there isn’t a portable IE version.

there’s also a opera mini-is that the same as a portable ???

Hi Dan,

I am afraid it is, the i there to put it on a usb stick for instance. I have the pocketSulfur on a 4 GB Stick,
and a pocketTorpark, and silver browzar just to render specific IE depending pages. I think you like to try out all the browsers in the world and then sigh, I have not yet found what I was after. But then you are you.

I don’t think this is portable… it’s not for an usb stick…

Hi Dan,

Then it is a mobile browser.

I think you like to try out all the browsers in the world and then sigh, I have not yet found what I was after. But then you are you.
guess so...but i always wind up with the same with what i'm using now...the firefox and opera and ie 7-guess i have the curious streak in me damain like you liking to do all the malware and etc. stuff you do-as does tech and a bunch of other forums members do...so i am not only one i guess-or am i ??? ::)
