New SlimJet Browser Release

[FreddyFreeloader]

It's a chromium Blink browser from the folks who brought you SlimBrowser, SlimBoat. Using the Chrome 35 engine as of today.

Some AVs may not recognize it and you may have to add it as an exclusion.

It is good to see another Chromium clone using the latest core engine.

Enjoy!!

Hoping they will keep it current, otherwise it's back to Chrome.

Tried about a month ago, Emsisoft block?
Any reason why?

It's brand new and it's a beta.
Some AVs take a while to white list new software.

What's the difference between this & Slimboat?Don't they both use Webkit(Chrome based)?

SlimBoat uses Apple Webkit (Apple Safari engine)
SlimJet uses Chromium blink engine.

Enjoy!!

Thank you for the info Littlebits.I am testing Slimjet right now,& i like it so far.Everything transferred(theme,bookmarks,etc.) without a problem.My main Browser is Comodo Dragon only because it has a Suppress HTTP Referrer Header option,which i think CD is the only Browser to have this.

Did you try Referrer Control extension? for Google Chrome.

Enjoy!!

Thank you,but i found it a little confusing.Not sure how to set it up like Dragon's setting.I also like Dragon because of their Secure DNS feature.I know there are other free ones out there like Norton,but rather not keep on adding extensions & whatnot.
Slimjet does load pages a little slower than Dragon or Superbird.I will definitely keep an eye out with this Browser.It's very promising.

I'm liking this browser.

30 mb?. Better use google chrome

Google Chrome is 36.6 MB more if you add extensions.

Enjoy!!

This is my favorite Chromium browser other than Comodo Dragon. I like it much better than Chrome. Chrome is so bloated that on my old system it basically can't run more than one tab without slowing my computer to a crawl. I find SlimJet to be much faster.

Moose, open the menu and click tools, then click extensions. You can see what extensions you have and modify them there. It works just like Google Chrome. You do have to get your extensions from the Google Chrome Store.

Thanks! For the information! But by Customize and Control Slimjet,there 2 arrows.
You just drag them apart from one another. Top right side under the Red X. Fix
my problem!

 

[FreddyFreeloader]

Good job, Moose! Yeah, they were hiding from you.

Some thoughts on SlimJet after a couple of weeks use:
1 -It's still a beta, and as such, the update come frequently.
2 -Can't update it unless in administrative account.
3 -Avast still flagging each update as suspicious.
