Old friend 5 stars by elf0402 Mar 15, 2011
Avant is my old friend,it have been follow with me for several years since 2003 maybe? It always open webpages fast and use you less memory which compared with other browsers. Although the number of her users is small maybe just three or four millions but it really worth you having a try. showShow review details
Good 5 stars by swiggy Feb 21, 2011 (Read all my 2 reviews)
I've always been a skeptic regarding alternative browsers to IE. I've use Opera, Mozilla, and many others, too many to number. But after using Avant, there is no need to look any further. They looked at what a power user really needs, and incorporated it into the browser. Not only that, it sits on top of the IE, so keeping your favorites and security settings will not be a problem. , Avant has a very effective pop up killer, and so many features (easy to use) that when I go back to IE at other computers, I really dont know how I used them before. showShow review details
My favourite browser for more than 5 years 5 stars by iwillneverstop Dec 11, 2010 (Read all my 12 reviews)
Very low memory usage, very easy to customize (such disable JavaScript, ActiveX, ...), being able to block ads and pop-ups. I wonder why MS doesn`t do the same for us. showShow review details
It's pretty stable for me 5 stars by Carlos1982 Nov 15, 2010
Whatever in my laptop with xp/ie6 or my desktop with win7/ie8, the latest release 2010 build 123 rarely crashes even I keep my system and browser running for 3+ days due to working requirement. If you ever used Chrome, you'll understand what these ybrowser.exe are for. I choose it instead of Chrome due to its stability and compatibility. showShow review details
Ybrowser issues 3 stars by roberta Nov 11, 2010 (Read all my 3 reviews)
I do not recommend using this Browser...it has an interface that gobbles up your CPU. If you download this browser, go to the Task manager and you will see 'YBROWSER.exe' running high in usage. I reverted back to the previous version of Avant browser. It is more stable and I do like their browser. However, AVANT needs to correct this issue...if you search Google, you'll find many users complaining about the new browser using the 'Ybrowser'. showShow review details
Slow as... you know what..... 3 stars by Tommiet Jul 11, 2010 (Read all my 8 reviews)
I've been using Avant for about 3 years and I had hopes that this version would fix some bugs - AND IT DID! At the expense of being DEAD SLOW...... IE5 would run faster than this version. I'm sure they will get it fixed, but I'll hang on to my older version for now. showShow review details
As an IE browser, Avant rocks 5 stars by J4Software Feb 13, 2010 (Read all my 2 reviews)
What I like in particular about Avant Browser is the availability of the portable version that can be run from a flash drive. The tab management and content blocking options also go far beyond what IE or most other browsers can do. Subjectively speaking, even without using any of the blocking options, it seems to load pages -much- faster than plain vanilla Internet Explorer - some sort of enhanced memory caching perhaps. showShow review details
Valuable browser 4 stars by nrkmenon Mar 10, 2009
I'm using Avant regularly. I find it user friendly with plenty of facilities. It is a wonder Microsoft cannot match Avant with new editions of IE. Only Firefox is superior. showShow review details
Simply the best ! 5 stars by User07 Jul 06, 2008 (Read all my 4 reviews)
Have used this for years now, and I am very happy using it. One disadvantage, the author keeps pouring out new versions all the time, keeps one busy to always have the latest version installed. Besides this, a really good piece of software ! Thumbs up ! showShow review details
One awesome browser 5 stars by Grizzly660 Dec 12, 2007 (Read all my 3 reviews)
I probably should of done this a long time ago but I want to throw my 2 cents in also. I have tried Avant when it first came out and had it for awhile and I deleted it and took it out of the registry. I have tried many others browsers listed here including Maxthon which I had for awhile but I went back to Avant and stayed with it through out each build and update. I will never ever switch again. Download it and try it, you'll be glad you did. showShow review details
Look no further for your browser! 5 stars by ChrisD Dec 07, 2007 (Read all my 4 reviews)
I've been through them all. I won't even spend time listing them. I've ended up with Avant which is a great combination of the IE browser core and an excellent productive user interface. There are features here you just must have: Ad blocker, AutoFill (which really works!), and URL Aliases (speeds up your browsing considerably). Of course there's tabs which works much better than in IE7 and you can configure the UI to fit your browser needs perfectly. The browser is my most used program so it's essential that it works and does it's job. Avant does. There's no doubt in my mind this is the best there is right now. Yes, there are others with more fancy looks and even more features, but every line of code added to the browser usually results in pages loading slower. Not with Avant! Finally, the on-line bookmark feature in Avant is great. I can now easily reproduce my favorite browser with all it's bookmarks and settings across computers. Get Avant! showShow review details
Still the best. 5 stars by asrs2007 Apr 23, 2007 (Read all my 3 reviews)
I've been using it years and although I tried some others with one or two better features such as built-in download managers, more plug-ins, etc, Avant is still the best. It is very fast, safe, easy to use with many features and IE compatible. It could be the perfect browser as it used to be if a couple of minor bugs (they were not there in older versions) could be fixed. It remains memory resident even after quitting (have to use task manager to end the process), CPU is used all the time (if you check cpu usage using windows task manager, you'll notice it) even without any web pages open. showShow review details
Best yet 5 stars by pcs800 Sep 28, 2006 (Read all my 224 reviews)
I have been using this browser for a couple years, and this latest release is the absolute best yet. I LOVE the online bookmarks syncing! Too bad it runs on IE or it could knock it off the map. showShow review details
Much faster than Firefox and IE 4 stars by slantedplanet Aug 25, 2006
Have tried this for a couple of weeks and found it to be very quick which is a pleasure. The problem is that certain plug-ins that I must have are not compatible with Avant. showShow review details
Great browser 5 stars by hidyhyett Aug 24, 2006
I have been using this browser for quite a while and i have had no problem what so ever. The features and ease of use is excellent, it is 100% better than Internet Explorer showShow review details
Great browser 4 stars by Nightowl Jul 18, 2006
This is a great browser that has a serious bug that needs to be fixed by the author. The latest version which came out in May, will leave itself running as a process, and then when I shut down my computer or reboot, the exe which is still running then crashes. Other than this bug, it's a really great browser. showShow review details
Slow and always crashes!!! 1 stars by dawnjones Mar 04, 2006 (Read all my 2 reviews)

Best all round browser and rss reader 5 stars by ianmacm Feb 05, 2006 (Read all my 144 reviews)
This is undoubtedly the best combined browser/rss reader available, and has far more options for customising the interface than any other browser. One advantage of Avant is that since it uses the internal architecture of Internet Explorer it does not suffer from the page compatibility problems that occasionally trip up Firefox and Opera. Avant's ability to open rss feeds automatically with a single click is something that rivals (including the new IE7 beta) should copy. showShow review details
Good for a try 4 stars by bluenote72 Jan 17, 2006 (Read all my 17 reviews)
During the first few days, everything appeared to be fine. But in the days to follow, Avant Browser and IE were constantly competing to be the default browser. I like to have control over the programs that open on my machine, and when they open. Avant browser doesnt allow that control so I dont recommend using it for that reason. Otherwise it is a fine program that does what it says it does. showShow review details
Avant Browser is a really outstanding... 5 stars by isailthe7cs Dec 17, 2005 (Read all my 4 reviews)
Avant Browser is a really outstanding browser. Tabbed, RSS feeds, and a great F11 full screen mode (the entire interface disappears and the whole screen can be viewed. It is one of the most stable programs I own. The menu and options are truly intuitive;never need to look at the help menu! showShow review details
Best browser period 5 stars by dlbean1 Dec 04, 2005 (Read all my 4 reviews)
Microsoft is "working" on developing the feature set that AVANT has mastered. Mozilla's latest Firefox release still doesn't touch it. For the very best of all the Browsers, do yourself a favor and make this one your default. showShow review details
It's packed with extra features. 4 stars by Fortra Dec 01, 2005 (Read all my 11 reviews)
I've used this browser for quite a while now and it has a few extra features that you won't see in any other browser. It's fully configurable which is very useful. One thing that I would like to see implemented in future release is an ability to copy and paste weblink from within your favourites folders!!! just like you can do in Firefox and IE6. showShow review details
With browsers like this... ie must die 5 stars by mapinedamtz Oct 28, 2005
This is an excellent browser, makes the navigation easier and faster, IE is in a place that does not deserve. The final users need to make the change. showShow review details
Not for me 2 stars by digipaws Oct 20, 2005 (Read all my 6 reviews)
Reminds me of IE but just with tabbed browsing.. personally not too keen on the interface and buttons and toolbars at the top were too easily moved around and lost. I find Mozilla Firefox still seems more neat and professional than this browser. showShow review details

Avant browser is best browser hands down 5 stars by neubrain Sep 14, 2005 (Read all my 2 reviews)
I have tried Opera, Firefox, MyIE2, Maxthon and others. I have been a longtime user of MyIE2 because of its tabbed functionality. However, the new version of Avant Browser is very impressive and I have now switched permanently to Avant. The tabbed functionality comparable to MyIE2, and even superior in some ways; for example, you can make your tabs as a floating window off to the side of your browser. Also, the 'similar websites' feature is very fun and novel. Another interesting feature involves leaked memory; Avant Browser is the only browser that deals with this problem completely. Finally, Avant Browser has the most style I've seen of any browser; it is a beautiful frontend that makes Firefox look hideous by comparison. showShow review details
Discreet elegance 5 stars by Leendert Sep 13, 2005 (Read all my 27 reviews)
If you're not an anti-Internet Explorer aficionado, if you're searching for the best IE engined browser available, Avant Browser is the answer. Discreet (not bloated!), fast, powerful, it is a Ferrari, not a tank. Everything anyone needs is there, except the plugin the friend of the brother of my sister-in-law will wish once in a decade! AB has many features, those of speed and tranquility (pages render fast, smooth 'n' fast, the ad-blocker is a marvel), the default skins are sexy, others very tempting. I love this software, and I've tried practically everything a browser may be! Just try it. It does not intoxicate the registry, and is as easy to remove as to install. But I'd be surprised you remove it! showShow review details
