Pros
Fast and easily navigate through games in FunPlus like Royal Story that can get bogged down with other browsers. Works well on my older Dell 15.9 screen
Cons
I cannot seem to get K meleon to configure on my newer Dell 13.5 screen and found nothing in the forums to remedy this issue.
Summary
Works well for the games I play in Fun Plus and Pogo.com
I wish I could get it to work in my new Dell.
Pros
It loaded in a blink of an eye on my system (xpPro sp3 1.5 G Ram).
No other browser has done that on any of my systems (xp,7 and 8)
Task manager shows K-MELEON using almost half the resourses that Chrome used (uninstalled now).Pages seemed to render about the same as chrome(maybe a little faster).I cannot comment on download speed as I dont need anything right now.
Cons
Not user friendly(not like Firefox at all),Could not watch videos from youtube on V. 1.5.4.(OOPs your browser is too old) and their link for addons sent me to a blank page.
Summary
I have since updated to version 1.6.0. Beta 2 and I now can watch videos butt the comments section does not load. Addons are easier to get butt the ones i installed lacked several functions.
All in all I want to love K-MELEON butt I cannot recomend this browser for now.I am writeing this review on K-MELEON 1.6 butt i now have PALE MOON as my default.
Pros
I like the clean, uncluttered look. I run it as my default browser on my main computer (we use five).
Cons
If not closed properly, the pop-up error message mentioned above appears when trying to restart. However, if you click the "Exit K-Meleon" option when closing, then the browser closes properly. If you get the error message, do Control-Alt-Delete to start the Windows Task Manager, go to Processes and kill K-Meleon. Then it will restart. Just a matter of developing the right habit.
Pros
It hasn't destroyed my laptop (YET)
Cons
1. Hangs continuously - particularly on Facebook. Slow as molasses.
2. Will not shut down correctly. Upon rebooting, always gives popup that browser did not shut down correctly.
3. WILL NOT UNINSTALL via Uninstall Program in Control Panel (Win7)! Uninstall window hangs, must be forced during computer shutdown!
4. The program's Uninstaller calls the same system Uninstaller which then HANGS and does not uninstall the program. It's Kafkaesque.
Summary
This is the biggest hotmess POS program I've run across in years. DO NOT DOWNLOAD!! I will have to contact the company to see how to uninstall since their uninstaller calls Windows' uninstaller and it hangs permanently both ways.
If I could give this negative 10 stars, I would!
Pros
The fastest, lightest, most transparent browser of them all
Cons
No longer supported, as such
Summary
Why anyone would want to use another browser, except for those badly-built sites which only accept the 'top three' browsers, is beyond me. I don't want to be conscious of my browser when I'm browsing, I just want to get to a site, find what I want, do what I want with it, and go. This browser is perfect for doing just that. It looks outdated? I don't care - it's uncluttered (or you can make it so) and you can do virtually everything from the keyboard - so all you need to see is the websites. Isn't that the point of browsing? If I'm on a plane I don't care what the pilot is wearing, do you?
This browser also stays fast - there's no fatal clogging as there is with Firefox, Chrome et al. It's secure if you've got all the proper security installed (and who the hell would be writing malware for K-Meleon?!?) and - touch wood - I've never suffered a successful attack in all the years I've been using K-Meleon.
Fantastic - if only all software was this good (are you listening, Microsoft?).

unfortunately i've never seen any evidence that microsoft ever listens to any of its consumers
Pros
- Runs fast in my old Pentium_III-Desktop
- It is highly customizable, which is great for power users
- The interface is Simple and Good-Looking
Cons
- Occasionally runs into Script-Error
- Hangs Sometimes, Necessitating closure of the entire window, rather than the specific tab, leading to loss of work.
Summary
The Browser is good for home use, but cannot be trusted for professional use.
Pros
Easy to use
Cons
Had problems when I tried to use a skin with the stable version.
Summary
The 1.6 beta version looks promising. Have downloaded that and will try out the skins again. I like this browser whilst not my favorite it's pretty good.
Updated on May 9, 2011
I'd like to give this browser 4 stars. Am using 1.6.0 beta version.
Very, Very nice :)
Pros
It has the Gecko engine the same as Firefox uses. But it is not a Firefox or Mozilla browser like Comet Bird or Safefox is.
Cons
They say it is based on Firefox 1 or 2 but I don't see the resemblance. Also none of the Firefox add ons will work with this browser. Because they are not compatible with this.
Summary
K-Melon claims it is based on an earlier version of Firefox,Firefox 1, but I do not see the connection here. Apart from the fact that it has the same engine,Gecko, that Firefox uses. So this browser is NOT a Firefox clone or alternative like,Flock,Safefox,Pale Moon,Comet Bird or the others are. I did not like the download manager or the toolbar either. Which is also different from Firefox or Safefox. This browser is better than IE or most IE based browsers,probably because it has the Gecko engine. But if you are used to Flock,Firefox or Safefox. Like me you will probably want to stay with those browsers or get Wyzo or Comet Bird. Rather than this browser,which is not as good as the Firefox browsers it "claims" to be based on.I myself would rather keep Safefox,Wyzo and the other Firefox browsers I have got,than switch to this browser. Andrea Borman.
Pros
Light on resources, highly configurable security features and interface, fast loading, multi-profile and multi-session capable.
Cons
Comes with a goofy looking dinosaur logo, but it can be easily changed
Summary
A great browser that's easy to use, but also has features that will appeal to experts.
Pros
Fast, light weight, very similar to Firefox Works well on Windows 98 and NT4. Works better than the last versions of Firefox that functioned on these OSs.
Cons
On cluttered web-pages, you still may have to "stop script" so you can get past the overload of advertisements. It lacks some the plug-ins that Firefox has, which would be useful to me.
Please Wait
