Version: Slim Browser 4.08 build 105
Pros: 1. It's faster than IE 7
2. Low on memory and RAM usage
3. Comes with Roboform
4. Has tabbed-browsing
5. U can clean your trace at the click of a distinctive button
6. Pop-up blocking
7. You can easily recover any blocked pop-ups
8. If this is your second browser, it effectively transfers all your Favourites from ur first browser.
Cons: 1. Only 2/3 of screen left for browsing cuz there's too many stuff on top
2. I feel that it doesnt give me that sense of security cuz it may not work well with anti-spyware/virus program (eg, Trend Micro blocks u from entering a dangerous website)But I havent try entering a dangerous website so u shouldn't take this point into consideration.
But if you're particular about memory and speed like me, then this is worth downloading!

"I love all the customizations that are possible."
Pros: Tabbed browser windows so it doesn't take extra space on the task bar, Alias definitions allow you to create shortcuts for websites through hotkeys, groups allow you to launch multiple websites at one time, which is good for work or shopping if you have certain sites that you always use together and tons of other features
Cons: unable to arrange favorites menu by dragging and dropping (you can do it through submenus, but it's more cumbersome

"Great features without the problems of underlying IE engine"
Pros: great intuitive interface, love MySearch function, AutoLogin, Groups and many other customisable features. Great for blocking ads, images and other unwanted features on sites. Speeds up surfing tremendously.
Cons: Does not seem to suffer the problems of underlying IE engine which is a highly maligned piece of software. Now this is a remarkable achievement by Slimbrowser.
