abu aufa Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Anyone tried this browser yet.. Mozilla based http://www.cometbird.com/ haven't try yet but look like Firefox Clone.I am very comfort and satisfied what I had ( FF3,Opera & Chrome ).Not for now.

TeeJay3800 Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 I just installed it. I see no difference between Cometbird and Firefox...at all. I just installed the WOT addon and it thought I was using Firefox. I didn't just willingly install spyware did I?

ishan_rulz Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Review on CometBird http://welloiledpc.com/cometbird.htm It says, it starts up faster than Firefox. Still, I got with FF Simplicity is hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aethec Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Hm...Saying it is a FF clone only on the "Develop" page is not nice. Piriform French translator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeeJay3800 Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Is this safe to be on my PC or not?? Being a "clone" of legitimate software is bothering me. Dell Latitude D600 Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit SP1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted June 25, 2009 Moderators Share Posted June 25, 2009 I hadn't heard of it until the other day with a request to have CCleaner cleanse it. Being a "clone" of legitimate software is bothering me. SiteAdvisor lists the site as safe. A clone of open source software is fine, think about it Netscape have used Mozilla's stuff for years now, as does Flock, etc. To ease your mind just upload the installer to one or all of these: virScan.org, Virus Total, Jotti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually scan files here: http://online.us.drweb.com. I guess I don't see the point of an app like Cometbird. It seems exactly like Firefox, with only a few very minor changes.

TeeJay3800 Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 I did a scan on the installer on VirSCAN, and 3 of the engines found a trojan: http://www.virscan.org/report/8374e694a4a8...449c61135f.html.
