Perhaps a 'bit' off-topic ... however
I'm trying out a NEW Browser that I downloaded onto my Windows8-64bit machine. It's called the "lite" version of
AvantBrowser ... AND ... I'm finding that it is noticeably faster than Internet Explorer.
This "lite" version apparently depends on Internet Explorer code BUT uses fewer resources and offers MORE OPTIONs.
It's even
touted to run efficiently on Windows NT and Internet Explorer down to 4.01
... ( if you can remember back that far ) ... and Windows 2000 thru Windows 8 ( I'm the proof of that ).
Strangely, it is Developed and Supported by ONE CHINESE INDIVIDUAL
"Anderson Che".
I have a Windows 2000 machine up and running and I do plan to do further "security" testing on that platform. My Windows 2000 machine has the FREE
Tiny Firewall 2.0.15 A software that will LOG ALL PROGRAMS COMMUNICATING ( coming and going ) so that I can get MORE COMFORTABLE ... ( and/or is it
trustworthy? ).
Others with opinions on this "Browser" program would be of ... INTEREST !!!
