I installed this browser a while back and use it every now and then just for the fun of it. I like it's multiple tab browser feature but IMHO it falls short of being IE on steroids, but since it's interface resembles IE in a lot of ways I guess it is not a bad choise for a secondary browser.

I always use Copernic when Google keeps turning up with the same links. It checks multiple search-engines at the same time:

Copernic Agent

Hey XpUser,

No, it's a full program, but it has the ability to hook onto Google as a toolbar.

Copernic Agent Basic if FREE, and rather limited but it comes up with more different links than Google can.

XpUser,

I just installed & tried Mozilla FireBird.

I think it's safe to say Copernic kicked Mozilla's butt back off my computer !:)

Copernic also has a function to search multiple engines in one country only. Which is nice.

Do you know any other zilla's I can try out?

Oh I almost forgot to answer your last quiz "Do you know any other zilla's I can try out?"

Not really - they're all garbage :-)
