Although not highly rated by Snapfile, I have a different take on this browser. I rated it highly because I think it excels at the market it's aimed for - young children. Children who are more comfortable with images and simple clicking than extensive reading or writing. - In fact, I would go as far as to say that this browser (with a few additional tweaks) would also do well for the eternally technically challenged. - I've run it a few times and I think it would make a great browser for my brother-in-law and a few other individuals who are overwhelmed by current browser interfaces. - The ability to add your own sites, password protect (on exit) and create different users are nice touches. - With a few additional tweaks (lock certain keyboard keys, add organizational tabs for older newbies (games, office, etc), access to local apps) - this would make a great Cloud-based browser on netbooks for simple UI building. Great for kids, could be great for some adults.

Two issues I found right away. One, from within Yahoo Kids, I was able to go to yahoo's home page and then type in non-kid words for searches and end up at a porn site. Two, I was able to kill the app with task manager without having to know the exit password.
