Version: Avant Browser 10.0 build 167
Pros: Avant is yet another contender in the browser wars. I like how it's fully skinnable, and you can drag the toolbars all over the place. It doesn't take long to load, and biggest thing is, it's free, with no extra ads or little pieces of extra software. Thumbs up for Avant if you're just looking to get away from Internet Explorer's many flaws.
Cons: Sharing a similar base with IE, Avant also shares some vulnerabilities...it doesn't live up to its promise of 'fastest browser on earth', and i found it to be only slightly faster than IE, while Firefox and Opera boasted even bigger speed increases.
Still, Avant is a decent solid program.

Version: Avant Browser 10.0 build 167
Pros: I used this browser a few weeks ago and some of the features were good, though not great. The popup blocker works well, and the tabbed browsing feature in this is better than in mozilla
Cons: I don't like the intergrated Yahoo! search and there are too many buttons which make it seem crowded
