Get the look and feel of Apple Safari and Google Chrome with QtWeb Internet Browser!

As I was researching for an alternative web browser that has strong privacy browsing capabilities which enables not to leave any tracks–cookies, cache, and browsing history among other things(although I know that Firefox 3.1 Beta 3 now has it and IE has it too), I have discovered a browser that is capable of doing the functions I primarily had been looking for. But more than that, it embodies the look and feel of Apple Safari and Google Chrome. It’s no wonder why I’ve tried this browser.

What I’m talking about is QtWeb, an open source web browser having some unique UI and privacy features, is compact and secure. Having built based on Qt framework and Apple’s WebKit rendering engine (which is being used in Apple and Google Chrome), it’s not surprising why this browser has embodied some of the features of Apple Safari and Google Chrome browers.

It has highly customizable user interface features that allow users to change application styles, navigate easily within frames, and customize web search engines with ease and a whole lot more.

As what I’ve been looking for, this internet browsing tool is capable of private browsing which has a full reset feature clearing all caches and restores all local settings after installation, and is SSL supported to enable access to secure sites.  What also makes this internet browser functional is its portability. You can store it on a USB, CD or DVD, and use it wherever you go, no ddls or configuration files are required. QtWeb is space saving having as little as 5MB with only one file needed–QtWeb.exe.

QtWeb Internet browser is a powerful and uniquely designed browser that gives so much functionality despite being small. Its friendly user interface makes it adaptable, its security and privacy features are a plus, portability and speed makes it a one-of-a-kind web browser. A definitely “must-have” software on anybody’s list.
