    Ok I've tried almost every browser out there like everyone. and for me, the best browser is ocra web browswer. it is made from avant. Try it and tell me what you think. I hope they come out witha portable version to it.



    I notice some bugs in it when i have x64 vista. but in x86 xp sp3 i find it one of the best here is some links.

    it also is uses firefox's addons which i think it is a plus. and alot more. it has atuofill and online storage so you can use it on any computer and have all your saved passwords and bookmarks.
    and here is avant the creaters of ocra. which has all the same feature but i think ocra is more stable.

    It's Firefox's cousin browser. If you don't care for looks then its a good browser. Very lightweight and fast.

    Oh yes, I've used this before. It's from the creators of the Avant Browser. I still use Firefox itself though.
