Publisher's description of Avant Browser 10.1 build 37

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. 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.

Editor's review of Avant Browser 10.1 build 37

• 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.

  "Problems Fixed from the last builds"

  by Stinger15 on December 18, 2005

  Pros: Once again this is a great browser, very fast. It has quite a lot of toolbars that can be added/removed. It autosaves the last site you were on if you close out avant (even after a restart of your computer).

  Great pop-up blocker. It has a great flash filter that filters out flash advertising for even faster browsing. There are now tons of skins to download that weren't available before.

  The problem of some sites not being found have been fixed, I have not had a problem since i downloaded it. I recommend this for your default browser.

  Cons: Although the problems have been fixed, the pop-up blocker is a bit of a overworker. It will block url's that you type in to the address bar (i.e. typing in google.com). But then you just click on the link shown in the corner to get to it.

  Also a feature it still doesnt have is showing what site your on when avant is reduced.

  Other than that, this browser stands above all.

  "Excellent - Based On Microsoft's Proven Internet Exporer Engine"

  by Microsofty on December 15, 2005

  Pros: Avant is based on Microsoft Internet Explorer Engine and this freeware browser simply shows that the browser dubbed "Internet Exploiter" can truly be used in such a way that it rivals even the likes of Firefox. Customisation is a dream to use, through tabbed browsing, to advertisement blocking, all the now common browser features are covered. But Avant holds another trick up its sleeve in that the graphical rendering engine has been optimised and refine to rival Opera in speed and functionality. Don't want to change the classic IE GUI layout yet want fast and secure browsing? Look no further.

  The GUI is plain and simple, meaning that for everyday use, Avast is simply bliss and doesn't take too long to master. Toolbars and taskbars are fully customisable to your needs, a dream to use.

  Cons: Avant has no flaws of which i can explain would devoid the software of any features or functionality.

  "I have a completey UNBIASED opinion about this browser and others"

  by 6herniations on December 13, 2005

  Pros: I was in search of the tabbed browsing experience with the hope of finding a little more speed and of course compatablitly for every site that I may surf. I found AVANT to be just as fast as IE, now that isn't a bad thing because it does have the tabbed browsing and I can still go to EBAY and download photos, but I also tried OPERA. It is noticably faster but I couldn't do any EBAY photo downloading. OPERA would be the best if it could handle all the sites out there like IE does so far. I also tried FOXFIRE. It is almost identical to OPERA. If you want IE's ability to surf everywhere with it's standardized ability, then AVANT is definitely the browser to use. You won't have any problems setting it as your default browser either (OPERA and FOXFIRE both had to set each and every time I accessed the internet). I gave it 4 stars because it is slower but it gets the jobs done with a good amount of features. I found it's interface easy to use compared to the rest and you will too if your used to IE. Overall this is my main browser of choice because of it's reliability. I just wish OPERA was able to do what I need! Because if you don't use EBAY, then DEFINITELY use OPERA>

  Cons: A LITTLE SLOWER THAN THE REST.

  "Streamlined Efficiency and Function"

  by croupier01 on December 21, 2005

  Pros: Although this is an add on browser to IE, it modifies IE to make it easier and more efficient to use with its tab browsing, ad blocker and some other features Firefox boasts of. It can be customized with skins and other features to suit the needs of the individual user. Has a sleek design the streamlines functionality. Suits my tastes and needs in a well designed browser. Highly recommend a test drive!
