Very nice release. It's working nice and fine for me. Thanks for the news.

whats phoenix?

Web Browser. Works a lot like Internet Explorer, but it's got more features, and is faster. My only complaint is that it doesn't have a built in FTP client.

Features it needs to make me convert from Mozilla: better tabs (option to have tab bar always visible), e-mail client (probably wont happen just cause it wants to stay web browser-only) more preferences (nothing for pipelining, which is 100% needed on 56k). Other than that, I can positively say that it imported my exported list of bookmarks very well. It does have a long way to go before I'd take it seriously though.

Things I love about Phoenix.

1) Speed
2) Size
3) Nice interface
4) Imported Bookmarks
5) Built in Pop-up killer

Things I would like to see in Phoenix

1) FTP software (That way I can remove IE for good)
2) A few bug fixes.

I see.

I just downloaded the Linux version of Phoenix though. I actually like it more than the Windows version. For one thing, these blasted little boxes that we write our text in is finally the right size.

That's something that didn't quite work right in Windoze.
