Neptune Browser

A new browser made by the Neptune DEV team (including me).

This browser is based on the Xulrunner 1.3 engine and the Gecko-Fx-E wrapper.
Learn more about the project here:
neptune-browser.webs.com
There is a new website (based at my own site):

Learn more about the gecko-fx project here:

We are open to new developers.

Screenshot of Beta 0.04:

Basic

- Tabs Function - 'Is still under development'

I only meant that anyone could help  tongue

We are thinking of making a lite open source version for dev's to edit.
Meanwhile I have made an open source browser called swift, download here: http://www.mediafire.com/?qqfwp734dsxqmf2

There is. VirtualBox.
Lets you run virtual (Well there real) OSes. You must own the OS to virtualise it.

For.

Windows
OS X hosts Intel Macs
Linux
Solaris

Great for untrusted software.
