Browzer not so good after all

Browzer was widely reported as a web browser that takes privacy and security serious. It seems most websites that “tested” browzer did not do their homeworks and parotted instead what the developers of browzer were claiming. The first thing that strikes me as odd is that Browzer is not really a new web browser but simply an add on of the Internet Explorer by Microsoft. It uses the same engine and identifies itself as the Internet Explorer.

The homepage of Browzer will be the starting page of it from now on with no way of changing that setting. Not a really good feature, don’t you think ? The search features use overture, a well known pay per click search engine, to generate revenue for the developers it seems. What about privacy ? Do they live up to that promise or is this also not what they want us to believe it is ?

Do we have more privacy when surfing with Browzar ? The answer is a simple no, we do not. Browzer supports Active X, supports cookies, sends all the information every web browser sends (like os, version etc). Someone from Slashdot tested it with Gmail from Google and found out that he was still logged into his gmail account after closing and reopening Browzer. Not really private is it ?
