If you are using Internet Explorer or Firefox or Chrome or Opera or Safari for browsing give it a Desi change with Epic – A New Browser from India. The Epic browser is developed by Bangalore based Hidden Reflex and is based on Mozilla and is available for free. What is very important is the news of Epic could give Moksha or liberation to millions of Indian netizens who are stuck with Internet Explorer 6.

So what is the difference from other existing browsers or why should I try out Epic –

 

  • the makers claim it is the world’s only antivirus browser.
  • plus the browser has an inbuilt addon to detect websites that are dangerous.
  • if you are an Indian then it is the first ever web browser from India.
  • anti-phishing protection - a big bold domain name on the address bar.

 

Apart from this, other features include those that is available in other browsers using addons

 

  • You can type in 12 different Indian languages including Hindi, Gujarati, Marathi, Kannada, Telugu, Bengali, Tamil, Malayalam, Urdu and Punjabi.
  • In the browser’s sidebar you can edit text, read news, view videos and pictures.
  • also claims of faster browsing and faster downloads.

 I TRIED IT AND FOUND GREAT... WHAT ABOUT YOU?

they have not mentioned weather already installed antivirus in system will clash with their antivirus or not ? This is very vital , because , only a basic antivirus is coming with epic, but in todays' net world everybody needs a full featured Internet Security. Two antivirus if not clash , still may impact heavily on system performance.

Also this browser is not a standalone scriptting , its build on mozilla, and it is recently experienced that with some processor heavy extension/ addons, mozila eat ups lots of system memory and processor power. Please have a look in the screenshot here. Its mozila with only three site open, and 10 add ons ( some are heavy).

Hi buddy this is not an advertisement to use the browser. I like this browser because of its features especially for Indians made by Indians... So I just wanted to share...

                                                                                        There are a lot of other browsers which runs on Mozilla like Firefox, Flock,Sea monkey etc which is preferred by millions due to various reasons...When the facilities increase obviously there may be some opposite effect also... Like if u wanna be a CA u need to sacrifice many things...

                                                           Ya if u install two antiviruses in a system it may clash. But I have not much idea about whether the antivirus in the browser will clash with the antivirus installed in the system.Any way I think that the manufactures will obviously know the matter and incorporated neccessary arrangements....right? And moreover Eset NOD 32 Anti Virus is one of the best available antiviruses in the world..

So again......... it is not advertisement.... ;)

All Epic Browser users, Good nesws is that new version Epic Browser 1.1 is available. To update check for update from help menu within epic browser or download from their site.

Now it uses Firefox 3.6.7. Cricinfo widget has been added as a source of commentary and live scores. Epic browser also shows “Recent Skins” . This upgrade also works in Linux machines like Ubuntu, installed using Wine.

Epic Browser (the first Indian Browser based on Mozzila) was launched last year in July 2010. It was also the first anti-virus enabled web browser. Afterwrds it was updated to ver. 1.1 , 1.2 in 2010 with lots of new features.

Still there was lots of improvement needed in version 1.2 and also users were asking for much more feature and power, so after about 11 and half months, epic browser is again back with new update & additional features. Now Epic browser have got a new look and lots of new features after almost a year. Also, they have redesigned the epic browser somewhat and now it's ui looks much beautiful.

So, If you are using epic browser then kindly upgrade it to v1.8. You can update the existing browser by going to HELP -> Check for Update.
 

Or You can download it from its site.
