What do you mean, Google?

The SafeZone Browser is our own "product" based on Chromium. It's locked down so that it prevents hijacking (including DNS poisoning etc).

Thanks

Again, it's our own build of Chromium with some stuff removed, and some stuff added.
We think it was a good choice for what we needed to do...

ok was just wondering
It would have been nice if we had a choice of browser to use

Vik, Further to the comments above, will you tell us the difference using  'Safe Zone' and using a browser in the Sandbox when using Banking sites? Thank you very much for a nice product(AIS).

I've answered this elsewhere... you're asking twice the same :)
