Browser Inundation

Way too many IE Browser Shells out there. I subscribe to PC World and was checking out the Oct 05 issue on Firefox & IE plugins/add-ons. They listed Netcaptor as a Firefox plugin (you may need a customer # to see it- it says “NetCaptor 7.5.3 This utility suite lets you align browser tabs at the top or the bottom of apps. In addition, its Address Tools offer you cached versions of pages and quick access to Anonymizer.com for trackless browsing.”- even though it’s an IE browser Shell ?) Anyways, I stumbled upon a list of other SHELLS and cracked when I saw Foxie (nice shameless URL address) and FireFoxIE. Bunch of crap hacks…
