Version: Smart Bro 2.7
Pros: For me a very refreshing change from IE7 and Mozilla Firefox.
Smart Bro is faster than IE7. Definately a lot nicer to look at and the choice of skins makes it that much better.
For quick access to you favorites , online games, and etc. the fast moving side panel on the left side of page is a nice touch.
Two Home Pages are nice. One with easy access to Smart Bro's web site to it's support, forums, etc. and the other to set to your choice.
Can be set to erase traces of web surfing ( history, cookies, etc.)
Pop-up stopper works well.
Have had no problems running it through a router as others have stated.
No problems so far with it in regards to clashing with avast antivirus, comodo firewll, and counterspy antispyware.
Cons: The google search opens onto the web page you are on, then you can type in your seach. If need be, just have to save Google to you favorites, no problem.
Con or not; if you like to use Mcafee SiteAdvisor it's not compatable with Smart Bro.
It could use a little speed burst, but I still find it faster than IE7!

"Smart Bro 2.7.0010 works great with "Vista"."
Pros: This is a unique "Internet Explorer" alternative. It grabs all your favorites, has double home pages, a built in history cleaner, popup blocker and provides easy access to some built in "Windows" functions. It has several color schemes and a unique, integrated sidebar where you will find your favorites and some features. It has tabbed and multi paged browsing. It's a fast, stable browser that looks great. It is a tiny download thats easy to install and use.
Cons: Takes a little time to get used to the sidebar feature.

"What is so great about Smart Bro?"
Cons: It is an IE Clone. I found nothing about this browser that set it apart from the rest. The only difference is that it has two homepages. All of the skins look the same, except in different colors.
