Browzar – Internet browsing without leaving a trail
This post was published 3 years 2 months 8 days ago and its content may not be valid anymore.Update: Browzar users security and privacy compromised.
How does a lightweight browser with no installation requirement sound? How about a browser that comes standard with the following features?
- No browsing history, stored files, or cookies – bottom line, no record of your browsing habits.
- No search auto-complete
- No installation required – click and run. Load this on to our USB thumbdrive.
Browzar offers all that in a tiny 264K package. Currently available for Windows users with plans for OS X and Linux alternatives. Sure, you can achieve the same privacy control using a portable version of Firefox, but where’s the fun or change in that?
If anything, and based off of personal tests, Browzar looks to be some sort of privacy minded Internet Explorer wrapper.
Reminds me of BrowserBob, which let’s you build your own web browser. Tried out the free simple version, and they had samples of custom web interfaces for various companies & promotions.
I think there was even a Simpsons version.
Hell, here’s the link: http://www.browserbob.com/
thanks so much!!
problem is. this does leave trails. look in your IE history.
You can get the same effect using Firefox with NoScript, AdBlock Plus, FlashBlock, the cache set to zero and “Private Data” set to be cleared upon closing Firefox.
That effect being practically nill of course… Your ISP tracks you silly.
