gandalf12 Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 To be honest I have not heard of it before now. I use Cyberfox which is very good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob13 Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 I use it. Seems faster than Chrome. I like the built -in download button for Youtube videos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

worgeordie Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 I changed to SlimJet,when i was starting to have difficulties with Opera 12,(dont like the new Opera) looked at several browsers,and found this to be the best for my needs,but i don't use all the included settings,the speed dial does not work as good as Opera's, that's my only complaint. regards worgeordie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lannig Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 I'm a loooong-time SRWare Iron user (it's another Chrome fork from a German company) but since we've beaten them on last Wednesday... OK just joking about the German thing, really since a post made by someone here I've decided to give it a try and I must say that I'm really impressed. Been using it for a couple of weeks and I don't think I'll go back to Iron. It has tons of very useful features built-in, seems a little bit less memory-hungry (I have a lowly 32-bit machine with 4 Gb RAM). My only concern is that apparently source code is not available unlike Iron and I don't know what's the business plan of the company behind it, so there's always a small risk that it's phoning home to leak usage data. Well, just like the regular Chrome does. It still fully supports Windows XP too unlike Chrome and Iron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somtamnication Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Try Pale Moon, another chromium browser. For built in torrenting and video downloads, I use Torch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gandalf12 Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Firefox in independent tests was found to be the most secure. Cyberfox is a little up on the standard Firefox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoshowJones Posted July 10, 2016 Author Share Posted July 10, 2016 I use it. Seems faster than Chrome. I like the built -in download button for Youtube videos. I downloaded Slimjet and then gave it the same treatment as Cyberfox by uninstalling it as IDM did not appear in youtube. I just remembered that you said it has a download button for youtube videos. I use Firefox as my second browser, but I am fed up having to keep signing on all the time, when you want to sign in, It comes up in Thai, then you have to click on "English".

Rob13 Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 (edited) I never sign in to Slimjet when I use it and so far everything's been in English. One thing I don't like is when ever I get the option to upgrade to the new and improved version I get a pop-up that says 'this file may harm your computer. Not sure what that's about, so i've rarely upgraded. Edited July 10, 2016 by Rob13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lungbing Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 I used Firefox for ages then it got bigger and bigger and slower and slower. Finally it often just sat there saying "Connecting" but never did. So now I use Vivaldi and very good it is too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
