AOL made their new Web browser available for download. It is based on Internet Explorer but with a few more features.
Here is how AOL describes the browser at the AOL Browser Beta Test site:
“
Beta test the new AOL Browser!
The new AOL Browser puts the power of the Web at your fingertips like never before. The beta version is available to anyone with an AOL membership or an AOL Instant Messenger Screen Name-and it takes just a few minutes to install.
Here are some of the great features included in the new AOL Browser:
Desktop Search: Now you can find files, photos, songs, pictures and other files on your computer’s hard drive just as easily as you search the Web. And you don’t even have to leave your Web browser to do it.
Tabbed Browsing: Keep tabs on your Internet experience! The new AOL Browser uses convenient tabs to help organize all your open browser windows, so you can quickly switch back and forth among multiple Web sites, easily finding-and getting to-the one you want.
Clear My Footprints: Whether you like it or not, your computer keeps track of everywhere you go online. But the new AOL Browser helps protect your privacy and stop snoops with just one click. Quickly and easily clear your Internet history, cookies, caches and more. You can even choose exactly which footprints you want to clear-making sure you erase what you want, when you want.
Thumbnail Previews: Now you can save time by viewing actual mini-previews of Web pages, instead of trying to decipher misleading URLs. Simply hold the mouse over any item in your history or favorites, or over any open browser tabs, and you’ll be able to see where you’re going-before you even get there.
And that’s just the beginning. There are more exciting new features and improvements on the way! Check back soon for the latest details.
