Additional Browser Add-on/Extensions
Will your company be considering making your product available for use with the following browsers: Avant Browser, Orca Browser, Ultra Browser -- djclbbr1956@yahoo.com

You know the phrase "wolf in sheep's clothing?" Avant Browser and Ultra Browser are really just disguises for Internet Explorer. Did you try Ghostery for IE? -> http://www.ghostery.com/download-ie
Orca Browser is based on the same core as Firefox 3.5.6, and it looks abandoned. It's missing all of the security fixes made to Firefox 3.5.7-3.5.17, so I wouldn't consider it safe for anyone to use at this point.
Avant Browser's roadmap suggests it's destined to follow Netscape Browser 8's path to oblivion.
Seriously, I don't see much of a future here.

There is a new fast browser Avant.

I would like to add Ghostery.

Whether Avant Browser survives or not, it would still be a good security extension while trialling it, if a Ghostery add-on was to be available. That was the reason for my enquiry. I don't see Avant as in 'disguise' because the developers are quite open about its compatibility with IE. The reality is the most popular browsers are also the most vulnerable to attack. Because Avant is fully compatible with IE 9 I'm not so pessimistic about its future but it depends how it stacks up on other criteria, of course.

Another wrinkle to this is that IE provides terrible support to extensions.
