Browsers
Description:
This browser is gaining more and more popularity everyday. I have now switched to using it instead of Firefox. The main reason is speed, ease of use and low resource usage. I really like the search function for google in the address bar and how you can highlight text on a page and drag it to the search bar as well. Although it hasn't got as many as extensions as Firefox as yet, it is well on it's way to catching up. Why not give it a try and see why many users have made the switch
Description:
A nice browser, it's advantages over
internet explorer are speed, privacy, security, customization, tabbed browsing, pop-up blocking and many more. A bit rescource hungry though
Description:
Previously this browser wasn't available for free, but came with annoying ads attached, unless you paid for it. In their wisdom the developers have now made it freeware, with no ads. The news from the net is, that this is a great browser, in my opinion second to firefox, get it while you can
Filters
Description:
This program filters out specific websites that have adult related content on them. It totally closes down the browser when someone trys to access the website.
A password is required to change settings, so you can protect your children.
Highly recommended. NOTE: Last Freeware version
WEBSITE COPIERS
Description:
Ever wanted to download a whole website and look at it later?
I know I have. Well this is
the tool to do it
Pop-up Blockers
Description:
One of the main features that distinguishes this pop-up blocker from similar ones is its ability to block floating ads. No other pop-up blocker I have ever used could do that and more. Although I don't use IE anymore, when I did, this was the tool I used to surf safely. It's very popular and worth trying, you won't look back
