Flash Animation Filter: More than 85% of all flash animation on web pages is advertising. These flash files are pretty large, and normally take up to 90% of the size of the page you're visiting. With Avant Browser you can save this bandwidth by blocking the download of these flash files with just one easy click. Avant Browser also provides options to block downloads of pictures, videos, sounds and ActiveX components. With these options users can control their bandwidth and speed up page loading.

Built-in Pop-up Stopper: Easily eliminate unwanted pop-up pages automatically with just one click.

Anyone heard of this?

I just found out about a New Product just out that 100% guarantees to make sure you never see a slow loading website ever again!

It’s called “Block It All (tm)” Block it all, is your handy dandy plug in for Internet Browsing, and the great news is that it comes ready installed on your PC both old and new. Block it all, removes cookies, images and text from web pages to ensure you can surf up to 100% faster or your money back, no longer do you have to read text, view images or see flash ever again when you visit a website.

To install just type “format c:” in to your command prompt window and never again will another pesky website slow your computer down.

Great tip supercod, I'll just install that on my PC now.......

I can see where this is heading, some not so bright spark will come along and think my joke post above is real.. So just to be clear to anyone reading, it is a joke.. Do not format your hard drive

why do people continue to make new browsers, did they not learn from netscape ?

As a web designer I just wish we could throw netscape, opera, firebird, lynx etc and throw them in the bin, along with apple macs

**jrisby** · 04-03-04

nah, wrong way around - throw internet explorer away and keep the rest. well firefox (as it is now renamed) anyway

**NaturalInstinct** · 04-03-04

can't everyone just use the same browser and the same OS , wouldn't that make everyones life easier ?

**tshirtsuntan** · 04-03-04

I suppose it would but you'd always get the microsoft haters shouting about how bill gates is trying to take over the world

**tshirtsuntan** · 04-03-04

oops, it seems he already has

I totally agree, i spent ages re-designing bits of my site to find out it looks crap on Netscrape.....it doesn't seen capable of working out simple style sheet borders for tables

How long does this Format C: thing take Supercod? I'm up to 60% after half an hour.

Will it take much longer?

**Supercod** · 04-03-04

LOL sounds about right mate, soon as it's done you will know.. you won't be able to see this post any more... see it works great
