Browzar Web Browser Falls Short Of Promise
Monday September 4, 2006
The vast majority of computer users use either Internet Explorer or Firefox as their web browser application to surf about the Web. A new Web browsing tool has been introduced which promises to provide better security and to not leave any remnants or traces behind on the computer which might disclose the sites that were visited, searches that were performed or other personal or sensitive information. According to security experts, however, Browzar doesn't perform as advertised. For more details, you can read Security experts cry foul over Browzar.

Beware before you download this program.I just checked the Browzar link and from there I found another link telling how this program is another form of adware and not as secure as it is being told. It uses Active X and that log still shows where you have been etc.
It may be a decent program but not what it is cracked up to be.
I don’t trust just about everything to do with the internet. It’s all making the world a scuzz-ball.
Thank you Bonnie. Upon further research, I have found a number of respected security experts have identified issues with Browzar and even The Register, which I referred to in my original post, has updated their information to highlight the backlash. I have revised this post to point out some of the concerns.
