Mr. Majestik

Yeah, it's mainly a skin for OE, not a *real* browser. But after 20
downloads Of others (including Mozilla <all flavors>, Kmelon, 1 Off,
Firebird, Opera, a few more I can't remember) numerous testing, and some
re-formatting of my HD, I've finally concluded..................






This damn thing rocks! It will stop pop-ups, allow tabbed windows, uses
mouse gestures, group favorites, and import all your stuff from OE. I
know.......it's still M$.........BUT, it works like the OLD Opera, like a
browser *should* work, it's intuitive, and has plug in's for more stuff. If
it had a stand alone engine, I'd BUY the thing! Really, and I won't buy
Opera now for any amount. I'm not giving a URL, because YOU need to do 10%
of the work I've done over the past few days.........

Do give MyIE2 a try as well before you settle on something. It's
similar in philosophy to Avant, but perhaps you might like it
better.

Then again you might not ... but always better to make a more
informed choice.

I'm a registered Netcaptor owner and *changed* to MyIE2 freeware. IMO,
MyIE2 is the best of the best.

Seconded, after having been a long-time CrazyBrowser fan.

Have to agree I tried most as well including MYIE2, CrazyBrowser, Mozilla
etc and have settled on Avant as the best for me.

means.........lots of slams from folks with another agenda......

Slams? I certainly don't see any in this thread...just friendly
suggestions.

Yeah...stating that they like a piece of software, and that you should
try it as well. Ooh, those no good bastards...what WILL they try
next?!

I'm sorry...the only things which were close to the "slams" that you
accused others of were actually *YOUR* implication that friendly
suggestions that you try MyIE2 were part of some "agenda".

Now, maybe I'm wrong. Maybe, one way or another, I missed one of the
posts that included the "slams". So I ask that you direct me to one
of these so-called "slams"...by all means, if I'm wrong, and there was
in fact a slam before your baseless accusation then I apologize. If,
however, the extent of the "slams" which you can point out are simply
people trying to be helpful by giving their own recommendations, then
I think you're seeing slams where they aren't, and should probably
seek some kind of professional help.

(And yes, THAT is a slam. Don't like it? Too bad, you have it
coming.)

Same here. I started using NC since the early days, and gave Adam lots of
feedback to perfect the program. I still have my NC key, but prefer MyIE2.

Most of the other IE shells won't auto close all tabs when opening a new
group. Wonder what *that's about? Few others have tab sticky names either.
Sheesh.

No slam, but how do you get by without auto closing tabs when opening a new
group, and without tab sticky names?

I was thinking they should offer MyIE2 for free. That would be REAL dirty!
It would reduce the choices of other browser shells, and remove incentive
for development. ;)

Then give your recommendations, by all means, please.......

I think he already did. :)

Hey, I really like and highly recommend Avant, Crazy, and Slim. However,
they are missing a couple of little features that render them far less
useful than MyIE2. Should Avant or Slim adopt these features, I would
shamelessly promote either of them.

Sometimes a recommendation is just a recommendation.

My recommendation was that you either give examples of the "slams"
which you accused other people off, or that you drop this whole
"agenda" nonsense. Because, to be quite honest, it's making you look
quite silly.
