i just recently upgraded my aim and along with the upgrade, aol's new explorer installed on my computer.

it's weird because i mentioned to someone else and they were like o.O;; as if they didn't know about it. i was wondering if anyone else is using this or even heard of it?

I dont know about yall but AOL Exploroer seems pretty cool. I like how it have tabs at the top so I can save some room on my taskbar. The style doesnt look so plain either.
Comptine
i agree but if you have too many tabs, the loading is slow. and once in awhile, it just closed on me. but don't you think the icon is so cute and the window is so chromey?

i like shiny things

Yeah i have`it too,its mainly made after FireFox engine,but because its full of grafx,lots of garbage is running very slow and is loading the websites very slow,in firefox i usually open 10-20 websites,in AOL Browser,if you open more then 5,you'll have to wait lots of time untill all websites are loaded,because its not loading all in the same time,its loading 1by1 (thinking that will be more fast lol) its not really a good browser IMO.i'll stick with FireFox,while all the time i do multitasking.

i installed it now.. it seems kewl.. nice skin.. but i think its still in Beta mode.. but if it isn't they need to fix some bugs in it. i never tried FireFox, i'll try that next though, lol

They didn't release a beta or alpha or anything for Macintosh yet. But from what I can tell, thats a good thing. Its kinda a crappy browser.

Yeah, I had it for a while. It's alright, but I still prefer Firefox (and Safari on a Mac) over it.

mellow.gif There's new updates in AIM? -has version 5.5- Meh. Whatever. I'll stick to my Mozilla, I'm used to not having the browser title not after the page title and right-clicking to open a page in IE...
emazing
Yeah, I upgraded AIM. It shows now, and it also decided to install itself.

Tabbed browsing is slowly working its way into all browsers, there are even plugins to give IE tabbed browsing.
