| Alternative Web Browsers... |
|
| Microsoft Internet Explorer has been shown to offer a number of vulnerabilities which your friendly neighbourhood hacker is only too pleased to exploit. Fortunately
there are more secure, less bloated and more powerful Web Browsers out there. What's more they can be free. Consider using one of these alternatives... |
|

|
|
| Mozilla Firefox (Recommended) |
|
| Firefox enables you to browse faster, more safely and more efficiently than with any other browser. More than 64 million people are now using this excellent web
browser. Firefox imports your Favorites, settings and other information, so switching is normally straightforward. Do try the 'tabbed browsing' feature. I wouldn't be
without it now! (May 2005). |
| I still love Firefox! (October 2006). |
|
| Free download from www.mozilla.org |
|
|
|
| Opera |
|
| Opera is probably the fastest and most secure web browser currently (March 2004) available for Windows PCs. It can be free if you will accept ads, or you can pay
a small fee for the ad-free version |
|
| Full details from www.opera.com |
|
| Opera is often available on the free CD-ROM or DVD supplied with magazines such as PC Pro. This may be a better way of obtaining this software if you have a slow
dial-up Internet connection. |
