The auto install feature is great alright,
Especially handy is the purple gorilla who helps you when you visit websites

I kid, I kid...IE actually appears to have improved on this side of things

Big fan of
Avant Browser (Their Orca Browser might be intersting when it his 1.0 as it is based on the Geko engine)
Amsn - cos msn wouldnt open in Avant browser about 3 years ago and I got bitter
Nero Showtime - it seems to display vidoe better and refuses to play any video that tries to download a license from the internet, which can be a blessing
