Cybersecurity is more of an attitude than anything else. Avast Evangelists.

Use NoScript, a limited user account and a virtual machine and be safe(r)!

I sure hope not.
Aren't there enough browsers already ?
Do we really want a new browser based on a slow engine ?

Avast needs to focus more on security, its lagging behind alot on that point.

We dont need stuff like GrimeFighter(Cleanup), or other similar stuff like that.

No matter how much/little it may have been customized, it is still a browser.
