Avant Browser is a custom Web browser application based on Internet Explorer with versatile multi-window support. It allows users to browse multiple Web sites simultaneously and block all unwanted pop-up pages. All opened pages can be easily stopped, refreshed, closed or arranged with one click. The integrated cleaner helps users to clear all traces and keep privacy. The built-in Google search engine enables users to easily search for Web pages and images.
Lite Version only includes IE rendering engine.

Reviewing 2013 Build 23 (Jun 5, 2013)
This version is not that stable as previous versions, but the new UI looks good.
Now they have both the concise and traditional interface which can satisfy more users I think. Personally,I used to using the traditional skins.
Split view changed a lot. I prefer the previous one. Still as fast as usual.
Reviewing 2013 Build 21 (Mar 21, 2013)
I mainly use the ultimate version,but I always keep a lite USB version in my computer. IE engine takes more resource compared with firefox engine which is the default engine I use.
Still as fast as usual and the AD blocker is powerful.
Reviewing 2013 Build 11 (Feb 20, 2013)
I suspect that this version needs a bit more polishing! :P:P After installing and running it all I had was my screen flashing like crazy. Do not try if you have epilepsy. :P
Reviewing 2013 Build 11 (Feb 20, 2013)
Beta 11 - Wow, this is just going from bad to worse. Now the program won't even open properly under Win 7. Lots of work to still do here on this app I'm afraid.
Reviewing 2013 Beta 8 (Feb 14, 2013)
Beta 8 - Split view feature still not working right under Windows 7. Exact same thing as in Beta 7. Still not resolved.
I saw in their forum the alpha version of 2011 is available there,have you guys tried it?
