0 groingo2 Posted July 1, 2004 Author Share Posted July 1, 2004 Yes it is four years old, but it simply was way ahead of its time. It works very well and now being a bit older and wiser myself, I can truly appreciate many of the features it has like an excellent email program, great download manager with a load of options to choose from, there are still lots of alternate skins for it (I have over 400 so far), flexible user interface and on and on. The only two things that were really missing was the original program of which nearly all links were dead, and an Ad Control, once the Ad Control was located that could recognise NeoPlanet it became a viable alternative I would make it available (like Steve Saleen says of his cars) "Power in the Hands of a Few", it's not for everyone. Pic shows: Taskbars with Channels on, Without and Minimal task bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 DevilsJim89 Posted July 1, 2004 Share Posted July 1, 2004 Not exactly what I would like my browser to look like... i hear ya! ugly....but then again you can't legitimatly base your opinion on just the looks but I don't think I'm gonna use it. I'm staying with Firefox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
