Avant is it really all that, Thu Sep 25 2003
Reviewed By: B-man

I have seen Avant when in loading use 60%-90% of CPU. When Pressing home Button it goes up to 95%. This is using the program in High Priority. This program locks in Real Time Priority. When not using the program it stays between 0% and 0.18%. Now with Explorer..i seen it at 40-95% in the loading. This is in Real-Time. When pressing home button it usually goes over 90% cpu usage. In explorer when no use it usually stays at 0% more often than Avant.In conclusion. the cpu usage seems better in Explorer. But not by that much. The main Factor is that Explorer can run properly for my computer in REAL TIME. when running AVANT in REAL TIME it crashes on exit and screws up the computer. Actual web page loading did not change in either browsers. If you are looking only for preformance there is not much difference. i am using minimum requirements...166mhz,32 megs ram, win98 and Another Task Manager for the cpu usage detection. Now i am looking at Actual Memory Load. OverAll size for avant after loading is 37732kbytes. For Explorer it is...33984kbytes It seems that Avant is actually allocating more memory. when you look at Avant.exe it is 655kb. and Iexplorer.exe it is 89kbs. It is the truth. Avant is actually a larger program than Internet Explorer 6. My second Conclusion is that there is actually no performance increase with Avant but i will run it because it blocks adds i think..

Someone finally got it right!
Super IE overlay that is a joy to use.
Takes a little while to get used to all it can do, but is time well spent. Pop-up stopper and flash control are excellent. Serious speed increase over IE6. I have been using this Avant Browser for about 4 hours and it is excellent. Thank you to The Creator.

Avant Browser, Tue Apr 01 2003
Reviewed By: smnoamls

I've always been a sceptic regarding alternative browsers to IE. I've use Netscape, 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 incoorperated 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.
Not only that, 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. Download it, and see for yourself. 2 thumbs up :)

Avant reaction, Sat Sep 11 2004

It apparently is just a mask over Microshaft's Internet Exploder. I was looking for something that didn't block everything -- I mean EVERYTHING -- like IE has been doing ever since I installed SP2. Avant has taken every setting of IE and won't let anything work either.

Fantastic, Sun Dec 15 2002

I liked IE, but this browser has everything IE hasn't. Faster, more stablility, blocking pop-ups, nice looking interface, and so on.
The creators did an excellent job !

Avant rocks, Thu Sep 04 2003
Reviewed By: gordon

I am a huge fan of Opera which is far more friendly than IE it is still marginally faster at Downloads but this addon is definitely worth downloading very stable and offers far more choices than IE does , 10/10

getting worst with improvements, Wed Aug 20 2003
Reviewed By: Charles Shajkur

overrated dinosaur
Avant browser like Opera are becoming dinosaurs. Many of the so called improvements made after version 5 have major conflicts with other well established programs. Its becoming more apparent that avant is just another Opera and why have the imitation when you can have the real thing. When the smoke and mirrors clear its apparent that Avant software developers have simply run out of useful ideas to incorporate into a functional web browser.

Avant browser, Wed Jan 21 2004
Reviewed By: Prof Ramani

A superb browser !
This browser, not so fast as Mozilla Firebird, is an excellent browser in the sense that it has multi-window option. Moreover it is extremely user friendly. My thanks to the creators of this browser. I have made it my default browser.

Very nice interface, user friendly and so much nicer to not have those Anoying pop-up adds all of the time.
