Publisher's description of Avant Browser 10.1 build 28
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. The built-in Yahoo and Google search engines enable users to search for Web pages, images, groups, directories, lyrics, software, and news on the Internet. Avant Browser provides options for blocking the download of Flash media, pictures, video, sounds, and ActiveX components, so users can efficiently use their bandwidth and speed up page loading. All opened pages can be stopped, refreshed, closed, or arranged with one click. It also comes with built-in RSS reader. Its similar Web sites bar displays Web sites, which are related to the opened Web pages. Version 10.1 build 28 improves ad blocker and pop-up blocker.

"The best browser I've ever used!"
Pros: I love the way Avant Browser handles multiple sites that are open at the same time.
The ad blocking system also works like a dream.
The Avant Browser is reliable 'cause it's based on IE.
It's free and frequently updated!

"Full Function ~ Powerfull~Versatile~Safer"
Pros: Exceptionally Stable considering that it runs ontop of MS-IE, if it crashes it usually retains all open pages.
I have been useing Advent Browser for over 2 years (never go back) & count less updates.
Many different tools to chose from. Set it up fast -- the way YOU want it. Many layers of protection !!! Change configureations on the fly. Updated very often. By Far The Best, Easyest & Most Powerfull WebTool I Have Ever Used. Oh yea, did I mention it is FREE ???
Cons: Does not incorperate a NewsReader.
They update frequently adding/changing features as well as Security Features in response to everchanging threat environments OnLine ~ this (rarely) causes a Bug or two. This is no cause for alarm though, it is most often fixed in one or two days. You can always go back to a restore point. I have Never lost any of my settings or data associated with it (sometimes it apears lost ~ just close it & reopen it ... it's back)
