COM. [/b]

That sort of was my point

On the other hand, writing an actual browser (not a UI) is an extremely complex undertaking requiring an enormous investment of time, resources, and talent.[/quote]

Off course, using the pre-created UI-elements to click together an interface is something that alnist anyone could manager (allthough designing a GOOD UI is an art in itself). The parser and renderer is indeed (as you point out) a tough job, and I'm really curious if Chickenman can pull it off (because he tends to underestimate his amount of actual hard work that goes in a project and overestimate his own skills).

Beta 1.7 is almost ready.

:All the code has been redone. (C# now not C++)
:New UI (browser UI + RSS reader UI)
:Splash screen (If I can get it done in time)

The Beta 1.7 version will not have RSS support, that will be coming in the next version.
