I totally know what you&#39;re saying, but would you do me a favour and try Firebird. It doesn&#39;t suffer with all the clutter of Opera and regular Mozilla&#39;s browser, rather it is just a browser, and a very good one at that. If you were to want want other features, you can download them from their site.

Once Firebird is installed (which is simply a case of unzipping a file), you really won&#39;t notice any difference, apart from a slight increase in browsing speed and, best of all, you&#39;ll not be vulnerable to the security issues associated with IE.

If you don&#39;t like it, you can just delete the installation folder as no registry entries are created.

i actually tried firebird b4 my pc screwed up (wasnt due to firebird) and i like it ALOT the only thing i didnt like was i couldnt get shockwave to work with it so i went i started using IE again, i might try firebird soon cos i was and is a very good program



also im not sure if u can use iFrame with firebird (could be wrong)

Maybe we should have a poll for what browser K-Lite members use?

i think that&#39;s great. i&#39;ve always loved opera the most, but mozilla is still way better than ie :x

I am trying out Firebird right now. I am a big Opera fan but this seems pretty good. I didn&#39;t like that fact that I had to install a plugin for mouse gestures.

@Marius24
Shockwave is working fine for me, don&#39;t know about iFrame though.


@dingobaby.
I&#39;m glad you&#39;re liking Firebird so far.

Only the &#39;barebones&#39; browser is included by default, with various additional plug ins available from the website. I think this is a good idea, allowing the user to decide what to download and install, and what not to bother with. Me personally, i just want a basic browser, but everyone&#39;s different.

Pretty much what I was going to say

With IE and Opera, you get features included whether you want them or not. With Firebird, you originally get the bare basics - A no-frills web browser. You get what you want then later from the components page.

It&#39;s a nice idea IMO; you don&#39;t get stuff you don&#39;t want in the first place and you don&#39;t download said stuff either. Only problem I could see is for those who can&#39;t keep a connection up long to download all that&#39;s wanted; it&#39;s a problem but I don&#39;t know any distribution method that can satisfy all of the above anyway (Though Firebird goes as close as I want anyway )
