Would'nt call it fast it's no diff to any other in speed apart from opera & that's only because opera has the icon to shut off downloading of images until webpage has loaded,that said it is a nice clean GUI there's no spyware incorporated in it,one of the previous posters has it wrong it was more than likely an already infected comp,a nifty little feature is to have tabs on the bottom & menu bar at the top right,should be interesting to see what other skins may be availble if any

Now i'm using the new version of Avant Browser and i think it's really good. One issue is if Avant Browser is closed improperly, all open web pages are saved and will be automatically reopened at next startup. I got from here: <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.rosoftdownload.com/download/Windows/Avant-Browser" target="_blank">Avant Browser</a>

The last version of avant browser it loaded a bunch of adware and spyware on my computer that has taken me forever to get rid of and I rolled back to the last version that I loved. No spyware, no adware, no holes or security issues. I don't know what happened. If I can remember the version where I experienced this problem I will update. But i sent in a complaint to the developer and never received anything back. Anyhoo..

Very fast, stable, highly customisable browser. Very intuitive, attractive interface, that is also fully skinnable. Lots of added security features make this probably the safest of the browsers based on the MS Trident rendering engine, while retaining the reliability of IE's page display. The whole feel of Avant Browser reminds me of what Firefox was intended to be, but never quite was. With lots of extensions Firefox could reproduce the functionality of Avant Browser, but would be far far slower.
