The UnUsual Suspect Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 I'm sorry to say that I don't really understand your question... :( There is no need to use a browser to download torrents. If you are talking about searching for and downloading the torrent files, then any browser will do, but keep in mind that "Internet Explorer" will report your browsing history to microsoft. I recommend using Mozilla Firefox. Its free, and much more secure, faster, and more resistant to spyware/addware, and can be customized with hundreds of themes and extensions.

My question is : In his WEB function (the screen that permits Internet access), does Bitcomet use a built-in proper browser or uses Internet Explorers modules ? I hope now my question is clear B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark_Shroud Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 My question is : Does Bitcomet use a built-in proper browser or uses Internet Explorers modules ? It uses a shell of IE.
