Everybody knows that browsing the web requires having a web browser. If you are a Windows user, things are not that difficult. That's because the Windows operating system features the Internet Explorer web browser, which is the most used. But despite its popularity, this browser is actually not that great and lacks a lot of useful features. Not to mention the fact that it's not so fast. Using a 3rd party web browser would be a much better idea. In this case, SlimBrowser will do the trick.

This Windows application allows surfing the web in a whole new way, offering a much better web experience than using Internet Explorer or other similar browsers. That's because this software offers just the user needs, no more, no less. All its features are efficiently organized in the interface and are also intuitive. Besides that, the page loading speed is better than in the case of Internet Explorer.

Because it's a Windows application, it features a Windows familiar installation wizard that can be completed very fast. Furthermore, the interface of SlimBrowser resembles the one of IE, but it's better organized and has more features. It uses tabs for easy navigation between many opened websites. A feature that other browsers don't have is the autologin function, which can store a lot of account details for various websites, and can automatically enter those details when browsing to the websites that require them. All this information can be protected with a password, for not letting unauthorized users access this private information.

Besides having the autologin feature, there is also the familiar bookmark option, which can save certain websites in a favorites folder. For making it easier to find a certain website in case there are many of them in the favorites folder, some of them can be organized into groups. What's more, the translation feature allows automatically translating web pages from a language to another, when browsing to them. This can save a lot of time.

The interface supports a large collection of skins, which can be accessed from the producer's website

Web pages that contain certain elements, like images, videos or scripts can have these items automatically downloaded on the hard disk. This feature is useful especially for wallpaper downloading websites. Web pages can be captured and saved as an image file, a feature which is very useful for displaying or recalling certain information included in a web page.

Pros

It has an Internet Explorer-like interface, but includes many more features. Besides that, the autologin function can automatically enter login information in certain websites and can protect all the stored account information using a password. Furthermore, certain media items, like images or video clips can be automatically downloaded from certain websites.

Cons

The interface may need some time for getting used to it. SlimBrowser is a solid alternative to any web browser on the market, having a lot of useful features.
