On August 6th, I wrote a first glimpse of the brand new Avant Browser 11 series, and to be honest, I was a little less than happy with it. Over the weeks since then, I've noticed alot of improvement.

The first "official" release (build 5), whilst still having it's quirks, is a vast improvement over the previous releases of the 11 series. Previously for example, you were unable to use the standard Windows favourites that were supported in every earlier release of Avant, support for these have thankfully been restored (though it's not set to use such by default). Without this, I'd have had to have dropped Avant 11 and gone back to an earlier version as it would have been too much hassle to keep them in sync (I frequently transfer them between machines).
