I created this web broweser in my spare time. It is in its VERY ealy stages mostly just sprite stuff so far. But it is prety speedy and can get you where you want in a good amount of time when compared to aol and netscape and other isp's browsers. Please try my browser and tell me what you think.

You only joined up today and expect us to download a zip file and run it without any screenshots or extra details. I think not.

I'll let someone else risk their PC.

Boo!

Spooky's right.

I mean, I'd suggest at least posting some screenshots--and I have to agree with Spooky that, well, you only joined today.

Hmm... it gives me the "gamemaker" feeling, Im not sure if it's made in it.
Anyway, is it a browser, it uses IEs rendering engine (I have IE 7 beta 2, only browser in which fonts are rendered smooth), so shouldnt we say it's more like GUI using IEs functionality.
I made similar thing in Visual Basic and that was called "Light browser", funny. Making it in visual basic tookt just couple of clicks and one minute.

Anyway, if you're making this futher, I suggest you achieve same or better GUI and functionality like in IE (but firefox all the way anyway).

Sorry, but just using IE's renderer doesn't count as writing your own browser. It's still IE no matter how you look at it. If you really want a challenge, look into WinInet and try writing your own HTML parser yourself. I wrote a program that would display the HTML of any page, but never bothered to do any parsing or rendering on it though.
