CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
While we appreciate new browser options, this program doesn't offer anything you haven't seen before.
Right off the bat, Wyzo's ridiculously long installation didn't make a very good first impression. But you'll feel right at home with the browser's interface because the setup looks a lot like the popular browsers on the market. A bookmark toolbar is included that is customizable, as is the navigational toolbar. During our tests, the program was very sluggish while we tried to browse the Web, and on several occasions, we received server errors. The same errors occurred when we made an attempt to download torrents.
The pop-up blocker effectively blocked pop-up ads, but that's about all we can say for Wyzo. Even though its free, there's no incentive for switching from your current browser to this one.

Version: Wyzo 0.5.3.10
"not the greatest...few problems..."
Pros: free...looks like a creamsicle...that's it!
Cons: -it comes with alexa, which is part of amazon.com and tracks your every movement and site for page ranking purposes; you must disable it in the add-ons inside tools...don't like the feeling of being followed, you know.
-ALSO, it couldn't find 3 searches i requested through its' highly touted bit torrent portion, even though many results did come up when i used my ares galaxy p2p and torrent portal website...so for now, bit torrent really doesn't do it for me.
-AND every time you send some kinda personal info (e-mail addres, per se), a warning telling you it's NOT encrypted and a 3rd party can get to see it...i never get that message with my other browsers deepnet and opera
