PhaseOut web browser

Though PhaseOut is a freeware application (you don't have to pay to use it) it is a very stable and deeply tested software.

Our mission is to find alternatives to the main browsers platforms adding ideas, functionality and cool graphics to the standard skins.

Development and research are totally supported by the users with search and navigation. Just use PhaseOut and share good words with friends and colleagues, we'll get enough chances to make deals and customize the product for the big brands.

We do not expect other than you try and use PhaseOut for a while, then if you like it, suggest it to a friend and to all those that you know.

Please beware from imitations of the PhaseOut browser. DO NOT INSTALL bundled or unofficial PhaseOut browsers. We have been reported of software bundles including some old versions of our browsers and claiming to be original or official such as the Spiderman™ browser that we developed under license for the Internet Filtered Solutions company. That browser was a limited time browser only. Do not download or install if you find around. Those bundle SW includes potential spyware and virus. DOWNLOAD form certified sites only. If you see unauthorised copies of our graphics and SW please report us.

What you should know, first, is that PhaseOut adds functionality to your current Internet Explorer version. Once you install PhaseOut your version of Internet Explorer and its settings are not modified or touched. If you will use PhaseOut you'll have the add ons working, and share and modify favorites and history with IE, if you will open the original Internet Explorer everything will be the same as before, except favorites and history new records.

Following are the main PhaseOut web browser features:

• Tabs
• Skins
• Controller
• PopUp blocker
• CleanUp traces
• SupaSearcher
• Preview Bar
• History and Favorites
• Messenger
• Photomail
• E-mail links and pages
• Options
• Shopping

The PhaseOut internet browser enables multiple searches with the major search engines just with one click. In the front panel type in the keywords textbox, click the search button and you will get results from the best search engines or those you selected. With the find in the page button you can easily highlight and find text in the page, and with the highlight keywords button PhaseOut will highlight all the keywords that match your search in the page.

Tabs keep order in the desktop making available all the opened pages aligned in the tab bar. All opened pages are always available at the bottom (or top depending on the skin) of the browser window. Passing the mouse over the tabs will show the page preview (if enabled) and the title of the page will load into the tab or will be shown in the skin. Every tab has its own loading status indicator.

Skin switching is the main characteristic of the PaseOut web browser. Skin's and subskin's extended features of our customizable browser are integrated by the Flash™ technology. Options for loading and switching between skins are provided in the Skin section of the PhaseOut side bar.

Controller is one of the most alternative tools of PhaseOut.

Use it when you are in FULL SCREEN mode.

All main commands are accessible through the controller or through the right mouse menu. Navigating through the pages or switching between them may be done with the preview Bar activated.

Pop-Up blocker with extended filtering settings for stopping unwanted popups or allowing them to be shown.

You can set the pop-up blocker behavior in the option panel. If a pop-up appears you can decide to put it in the white list by clicking on the OK green button (as shown in the image on the right) or to ban it in the black list with the red stop hand button.

Additionally there are three basic behaviors:

1. Do not show pop-ups at all.
2. Show only those listed in the white list.
3. Show all except those in the black list.

Clean Up traces is a tool for secure and complete privacy.

It deletes any track history, record and file present in the cache.

Useful when you leave the PC after a session and don't want others to see what you visited, the items you shopped or the files you opened.

The image on the left shows the cleanup options when you click the right mouse menu.

SupaSearcher in addition to the classic search tool bar provides you real time keywords for further search based on the theme of the showing page, automatically.

For example: You were looking for "DVD back up software" and you are on a DVD related products page as shown below and want to search for similar, alternative or other resources like this.

Let's Supasearcher do the work for you !!!

In the side bar you have, in real time, the search phrases you need ready to click, you don't have to type, you don't have to think what are the words to search for, just click. The searches will open in new tabs to be reviewed later.

SupaSearcher also perform multiple searches with the selected engines (Google, Yahoo, Altavista, and many other) and get the results on the respective engine pages in just one click.

The Preview Bar, located in the PO sidebar, shows thumbnails of the web pages and their loading progress, click the thumbnails to switch between the pages or keep an eye on them to check if a page is loaded or not without necessarily open it.

If you enable the tab preview bar (in the right mouse menu) you can see a preview while rolling over a tab with the mouse.

The tab preview option is disabled by default.

History and Favorites Tools add, manage, organize your collections of sites. Including a very useful search tool for finding sites within your list in seconds.

Messenger opens your favorite chat messenger directly from the front panel. The first time you'll use this function you will be asked which messenger to set as default if you have more than one installed.

Photomail send instant webcam pics to your friends. Make photo, choose the recipients from your address book and send e-mails with your instant pictures !!! WARNING: This function only works if you are equipped with a webcam. A note about PhotoMail: we developed this feature in the early years of phaseout, when it was an application built for the kiosk terminals (those public totems with the touch screen monitor).

E-mail links and pages send web site previews and links to friends with just one click.
