Based on Internet Explorer 6 technology, new AOL Browser has taken what is good with browsers such as Firefox and Opera, and incorporated it all into one browser. With features such as tabbed browsers, quick search and an all inclusive desktop search facility, could this be browser that puts a dent into Firefox's golden run?

Perhaps, but lets not look too far ahead. As with any beta software, AOL has a long way to go with their new browser, and it has lots of features lined up and raring to go. Some of key features to browser include:

- Tabbed Browsing: Everyone loves it, it saves space, and it saves memory. Tabbed browsing is future of internet browsing, and AOL have found a solution that works just fine. It's nothing innovative, no, but tabbed browsing is fast, efficient, and easy to use. Hovering over a tab will display a screenshot of page which lies beneath, so no more having to flick through browser tabs to find page your looking for!

- Website Snapshots: The idea of a snapshot has been around for a while, but AOL have made good use of it this time around. Hover over back and forward buttons to see webpage you just left behind, hover over a tabbed window to see what is on it, and hover over quick favourites to see where exactly where they are going. It couldn't be simpler!
