Web Browser – The Preferred Fastest Windows XP Browsers

Web browser (from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia), is defined as a software application which enables a user to display and interact with text, images, videos, music and other information typically located on a Web page at a website on the World Wide Web or a local area network.

Text and images on a Web page can contain hyperlinks to other Web pages at the same or different website. Web browsers allow a user to quickly and easily access information provided on many Web pages at many websites by traversing these links. Web browsers format HTML information for display, so the appearance of a Web page may differ between browsers.

Web browsers are the most commonly used type of HTTP user agent. Although browsers are typically used to access the World Wide Web, they can also be used to access information provided by Web servers in private networks or content in file systems.

Some of the Web browsers currently available for personal computers include Mozilla Firefox, Safari, Konqueror, Opera, Flock, Internet Explorer, Epiphany and AOL Explorer. The following browsers that I’ve tried and I currently have installed on my PC and use them in my daily surf, I must admit that they all rock…..

Windows Internet Explorer 8: (commonly abbreviated IE8) is the next version of Microsoft's Explorer web browser, succeeding Internet Explorer 7. A Beta 1 targeted for web designers and developers was released to the general public on March 5, 2008; and a Beta 2 targeted for all consumers was released in August, 2008.

According to Microsoft, security, ease of use, and improvements in RSS, CSS, and Ajax support are its priorities for IE8, along with significantly better support of web standards than its predecessor. As a result of better standards compliance, IE8 will break compatibility with web pages that were designed around the bugs and quirks of previous versions.

To soften the impact of these compatibility issues, IE8 will enable web designers to turn off all breaking changes in IE8. There are three modes that IE8 can render, named, "Quirks," "Strict," and "Standard." When there is an old DOCTYPE or when there is no DOCTYPE, IE renders it like IE5 would (quirks mode). When a special meta element or its corresponding HTTP header is included in a web page, IE8 will render that page like IE7 would (strict mode). Users can switch between the three modes with a few clicks and then restarting Internet Explorer.

A word of caution! Lately, Microsoft announced new security features of IE8 are designed to combat the rising tide of drive-by downloads and malicious scripts contained within carefully crafted links embedded in e-mail and Web pages. Most of the new features require systems to be running Windows Vista SP1 or WindowsXP SP3.

Mozilla Firefox (abbreviated officially as Fx, but also commonly as FF) is a free web browser descended from the Mozilla Application Suite, managed by the Mozilla Corporation. Firefox had 19.03% of the recorded usage share of web browsers as of June 2008, making it the second-most popular browser in current use worldwide, after Internet Explorer.

Firefox uses the free Gecko layout engine, which implements some current web standards plus a few features which are intended to anticipate likely additions to the standards. Firefox is available in over 45 languages, thanks to the contributions from Mozilla community members around the world. The web is all about innovation and it sets the pace with dozens of new features including the smart location bar – one click bookmarking and blindingly fast performance.
