This thing needs a lot of work. First of all it seems WAY too cluttered. Also, you have not focused on any of the minor details that makes a good application... to start with the application is still named From1.

Send a message via ICQ to linxis
It is only in the beta stage currently and that is why it still has the name Form1

Please tell me what you think about it

So am i right in guessing you used VB.net for this? At the moment it looks like just a few buttons and a few WebBrowser controls from the System.Windows.Forms namespace. So if i remember correctly that is basically just ye old IE controls. So i wonder how you can say its 5x faster than IE. Keep at it maybe with a a lot more work and some windows design guidelines implemented it will look and work good.

linxis, will you please post the results of whichever benchmarks you ran to prove that it does indeed run so much faster than IE and Firefox?

OK here goes, you need to pay way more attention to small details because these can get very annoying (I don’t care that it is a beta) and get rid of that forum at the bottom which makes it feel cluttered. Also, there are way too many over sized buttons, you could make them smaller and rearrange the form so you have more of a browser area. As Jim said, the sizing is horrible. Also the ftp screen should not be there but default, adds to much clutter, maybe put a button somewhere that can toggle it visible or not. Also it is generally ugly IMO. You do have a good idea though, with the multiple browser windows or whatever you call them... but I would prefer tabs like in Firefox and IE7. You also shouldn’t go around making up statistics, especially ones that don’t make sense. I highly doubt that your browser is even close to 5 and 6 times faster, please don’t make up statistics.

How the hell did he manage that. I didnt know there was a way to change that, how do you go about improving or making worse your reputation. I thought everyone was on distinguished road.

The libra in between the "JimmyJim is online" and the "Report Bad Post" icon (except you won't see the previously mentioned icon if you are reading a post on your own account).

Linxis has a horrible reputation, because he has had a relentless number of posts that lead me to believe he is lying in his age by at least 8 years. Just go to his profile and read his post history. You will see what I mean.

Need? Who knows, one could make a dam' good case for it. It beats the hell out of bum and misleading information. The efficacy of bullshit in nourishing plants cannot be taken as indicating that it has the same salubrious effects on the human brain and thought processes.

the soruce for the moded IE cmponet is unavailable due to it being edited with a program that just changes strings inside of it. And for now i would like to keep all source secret so it isn't copyed. And game ender sorry to say but my OS has been canceled my PC will not compile any kernels for some reson.
Sarcasm is about the kindest sort of comment that can be applied to this technical treatise on the design of a super-fast browser.
