Browser reviews

 

The browser is the looking glass for the internet. Each browser has special features and they keep getting better.

Some New features:

Tab Browsing:
In Mozilla and Foxfire if you right click on a link a drop down menu will offer to open up the new page in a new window in the same browser. This may not sound like much but once you start using it there is no better way search and compare.

Security:
All the new browsers are coming out now include ways to stop pop-up windows and that’s just the begining. You can now set default exposure settings for cookies, popups, forms, and images.

I like to set images to except images from same site only, This stops alot of banner ads. With  Opera you can right-click on an image and stop it from being shown again.
