      IE alternative?

      Hi,

      I am looking for an alternative to Internet Explorer. These are the ones I am aware of and don't particularly like:
      Netscape
      Opera
      Mozilla

      If anyone know of a good alternative browser please post the name(s) here.

      Thank you!

      Thumbs up IE Alternative

      Cawdor,

      I use MYIE. Found it a few weeks ago. Uses very little resources and has google as a default engine. Check it out.

      I am new here and don't know how to attach a file to this post. If you can instruct me how I will post it.

      thanks,

      DJ NUDDY

      I didn't know that...I guess I was misled. But why would MYIE load faster than IE?

      Phoenix, a new "lightweight" version of Mozilla:
      h..p://www.mozilla.org/projects/phoenix/phoenix-release-notes.html
      But on my pc it's very slow.

      K-Meleon, my favourite: h..p://kmeleon.sourceforge.net/
      The bad news, it's still a beta.
      The good news, a new version based on Gecko/Mozilla 1.2 was released yesterday

      Enigma Browser is damn good. It runs on a few IE dll's. You can run IERadicator on IE after installing Enigma and it'll work like a charm. The catch-22 is that it isn't popular enough to find a crack for the gold edition, but that's a good thing as far as security goes. (Use a search to find it) Also as posted above, K-Meleon works great.

      How about Netscape ?

      Find that the latest version works quite well.

      Aparently this new "Pheonix" lightweight version of Mozilla is meant to be really good, I'm using IE6 and might check it out.

      Most other browsers like NeoPlanet for instance as VIPER_1069 says are just a shelled IE with skinning functions.

      Sad... I know, I'll stick with IE... it does!
      You know, somebody actually complimented me on my driving today.They left a little note on the windscreen, it said 'Parking Fine.'
      So that was nice.

      Dont forget Crazy Browser...a freebie with tabbed sections...sure it runs off ie...but looks better

      Pheonix is very good but be warned, it sucks lots of RAM.
      I hope they fix this in the near future as this baby is faster than Mozilla.
