Publisher's description of Avant Browser 10.1 build 26

From Avant Force:

Avant Browser allows users to browse multiple Web sites simultaneously and to block all unwanted pop-up pages and Flash ads automatically. The integrated cleaner helps users clear all traces and maintain privacy.

Editor's review of Avant Browser 10.1 build 26

• 5.0 stars

• "Ditch Internet Explorer"

Starting from the Internet Explorer engine, Avant Browser adds useful capabilities, such as grouped favorites, an RSS reader, and tabbed browsing. The first thing we noticed upon launch was the aesthetically pleasing skin that came as the default with Avant Browser, but you can choose from among many preloaded skins in the Tools menu. The tabbed-browsing feature lets you quickly switch among Web sites, rather than having to shuffle through several browser instances in the Windows taskbar. If you visit several Favorites often, you can save them as a group and open the whole group with one click. When you shut down the program, Avant Browser remembers which windows were open and launches them the next time it starts up. You also can automatically refresh all windows, or only the current one, at regular intervals. A simple pop-up blocker works in most cases, but it was powerless against some floating banners and other, more obscure pop-up methods. Overall, we found Avant Browser a great alternative to Internet Explorer, with useful features that make browsing even more efficient.

  "Good Browser, but not Firefox or Opera"

  by aitchondo on September 19, 2005

  Pros: Good ideas which worked fine.

  Cons: I understand them wanting to get paid and can live with pop-up asking for money, but with several browsers, I choose which I want and this one tries to force itself on you... even after you say no. Only con for me.

  "Avant is Internet Explorer"

  by Chrono13 on September 19, 2005

  Cons: Avant, like its cousin Maxthon, is an IE skin. It not only shares the same security problems as IE, but has a few of its own - making it worse than IE. Use Firefox. Use Opera, use whatever you like... but don't be fooled by these skins. Avant is NOT a browser - it is a shell over IE!

  "Another Wannabe"

  by TonySu on September 22, 2005

  Pros: Better than IE

  Cons: Definitely better than IE but lets admit, what isn't?

  It is basicall a IE with extra mods downloaded onto it.

  Can't even compete against the proper browsers like Firefox, Opera, Netscape.
