Arrow Great new privacy browser

I pay a lot of attention to new browsers since I am really interested in browsers. Some of them are worthwhile and others aren't very impressive.

I've been testing a new browser for the past week and I am really impressed with it. This browser is designed to do one thing. It does that one thing and it does it very well.

The purpose of it is to protect the privacy of the user. It does that by automatically discarding all traces of a Web session.

You must have Internet Explorer 5.5 or higher for this 264K application that runs on Windows systems. This browser uses the Internet Explorer rendering engine. There are plans for Mac versions and Linux versions but the release dates haven't been determined.

The privacy issues are handled by not saving files to a cache or history log. All cookies acquired during a session are deleted when the browser is closed.

You can download it each time you want to use it since it is so small, or you can store it on your hard drive or flash drive and run it from there.

Browsers such as Firefox can be set to automatically delete the browsing history and all cookies, as well as empty the cache, each time the browser is closed. But this one is easier and can also be used in a wider variety of circumstances.

You can also use this browser to search for what you want. It won't remember your searches and it won't auto-complete them.

You can use this browser for privacy at the home of friends or relatives, an Internet cafe, at work etc.

The name of this browser is Browzar. Here is a link to their site where you can obtain additional information as well as download it and see what you think about it Browzar | Your private window on the Web
