It's an alternative internet browser and it's awesome, and you can automatically block pop-ups!!

I use Internet Explorer with the Google toolbar. I can do searches of cigars while bidding and block pop-ups! :)

I tried a few years ago (probably several hundred versions ago now) and never really thought that it was that much of an improvement. If I remember, it's claim to fame that it was very small and faster than IE or Netscape. At the time I was still using Netscape since IE was still in it's infancy and poorly designed. Probably not much help for any advice on a newer version. Had forgotten all about it... will have to do a search and check it out.

Use both. Prefer Opera but sometimes use IE if Opera has any problems. Also use the Google toolbar and it works very well too at blocking popups. Opera's built-in popup stopper works equally as well.

I use it. Have for about a year. Only bug I have is sometimes it won't connect to links on a web page. I can put up with that becaise it does block pop-ups.
