StrikeDefend Anti-Rogue Internet Browser

The Internet is home to large quantities of data that cover anything from entertainment to business and science. For whatever the reason you need to get ahold of a piece of info, you need to go online with web browsers being the only ones able to take you there. Amongst others, StrikeDefend Anti-Rogue Internet Browser aims to do so with enhanced security methods.

You don't need to install the application on your system which means registries remain intact. You can keep it on a removable storage device in case you're working on different computers and you want to use this browser.

On the other hand, launching it creates a little confusion, until you realize it's not really what you'd expect. Most of the space is taken up by the preview section, with no toolbars, buttons or any other elements other than a text field for URL input.

Moreover, writing down the address is the first step to accessing the specific page, but pressing the return key doesn't do anything. Sadly enough, you need to hit the “Go” button, which is the only one, in order to load the page.

You probably figured out by now that there's no possibility to save frequently accessed pages, nor organize them with a bookmarks manager. There's no history tracker to let you revisit pages. But what's even more annoying is the lack of navigation buttons, so you have to be pretty sure before accessing other links.

You need to open multiple instances of the application for more pages, because of no support for multiple tabs. However, this needs to be done like for the first instance, because choosing to open a specific link in a new page triggers it in Internet Explorer.

Last but not least, content you can fully enjoy is highly-limited, because the application's technology is rather outdated and websites built around HTML5, JavaScript or CSS won't properly load. What's more, you'll never feel that extra sense of security the name suggests to offer.

All things considered, we can safely state that StrikeDefend Anti-Rogue Internet Browser has a lot more to learn from the big players on the market. It's missing a disappointingly high amount of important features which considerably reduce practicality, and there's no other feature to tip the scales in its favor.
