Polonus, Have you tried.....

ArmorSurf Basic v.1.0.0.11

After a little tinkering with ArmorSurf, I've got to tell you, I'm digging it-- maybe a little too much. It's a secure Web browser. It's a Flash video downloader. It's a straight-up devious little program. The best way to sum up its features is to talk about a day spent looking busy without doing any actual work. At the crack of dawn, I secretly install ArmorSurf. Inside the program, I surf without fear: ArmorSurf stashes my history, cookies, and autocomplete info from prying eyes
File Size: 7663KB OS: Windows Vista, XP

Direct Download also available here

I’d be interested in your and any one else’s opinion.

I’m still looking (waiting) for some replies.
Thanks

;D Hi Bob3160,

Thanks for introducing a new safer web browser .I think this is the right browser for those who security concious people out there.I reviewed its feature,its concentrates on security and file download management http://www.armorsurf.com/features.php This is the right browser for FreewheelinFrank and Polonus ha!ha!ha! they love a secure browser!!! IT only lacks media exposure
and by time it will be known by other people they might consider to download it as a good alternative for internet explorer :smiley: :wink: ;D

This reminds me a little of the post by Bob about Joost’s software application. Here today gone tomorrow.

Any software development organization today needs more than just enthusiasm. It needs someone to invest in it and someone who sees a way to help return that investment - more especially in the current economic climate.

That is why - I will venture to predict - this product has no future. I will be happy to be wrong and allow anyone who cares to remind me of this prediction 2 years from now - though I feel quite safe. A new browser needs to have something “different” to get people interested in it, to make the change and security, however much it matters in this forum, does not sell to the general public.

There is only so much advertising and “sponsored ads” to go round in the next year or two of economic hard times. IE with Microsoft’s ownership of the operating system will still dominate. I venture to suggest that Firefox will lose ground to Google’s browser. Google has a lot of money to throw at its offering and may even make some inroads into the corporate sector (taking IE share rather than Firefox users) where Firefox has signally failed to do so despite its gains in the home user sector. Google’s offering may even attract away a significant part of the home user sector from Firefox. Opera will remain a small player favored by a few.

I suspect that in 5 years ArmorSurf will be forgotten, the major challenger to IE will be Google’s browser. Firefox will still have its adherents and it is hard to see if Opera will still be around … but I suspect it will be.

Edited in response to Bob’s reaction below.

This reminds me a little of the Joost post by Bob. Here today gone tomorrow.
Joost certainly isn't gone and [url=http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=19387.msg344528#msg344528][b]nothing in that post mentions anything about that fact[/b][/url]. They have simply evolved into a net only source for their service. http://www.joost.com/
