Update - Browster (Firefox surging ahead)

Scott Milener, the CEO of Browster, just left a very interesting comment on our last Browster posting. After supporting Firefox for only a couple of weeks (actually, about a week), it accounts for 1/3 of total downloads:

thanks for posting and for the kind words about Browster. We’re really happy to be supporting Firefox. We’re now getting requests for Browstr on all platforms and all browsers - lots to do!

interestingly our Firefox install numbers are already 1/3 of our installs (thousands per day). it’s that kind of acceptance that helps drive the Firefox community and companies like ours to support the platform. please drop me a line with any thoughts about improvements or any other ideas.

thx

  • sir,

    i constantly get an error message that ‘browster has performed an illegal operations’ and advises to restart firefox. i click on the ‘cancel’ tab a number of times (around 10) and firefox continues.

    i have tried to uninstall browster (add and remove programs), but i get the same response.

    the browster icon still shows in front of the google entries when i do a google search, in a half shade image.

    i am using firefox 1.5, windows xp home.

    how do i remove browster completely. i have done a search of explorer but have found no files containing ‘browster’.

  • Browster is fine until you use it with Firefox and Ebay. SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOW and annoying. I tried to uninstall but it still appears in Firefox.

  • I have the same problem. I have uninstalled form the control panel but it still appears in Firefox.

  • Worst than most virus and adware!
    Browster is one of the worst things tha happened to me. It is terribly annoying and i am not able to get rid of it.

  • It’s annoying mut***fuc***** program, if u want know … I doesn’t need ever install this shit to it keeps redirecting my web pages to “Install Browster now” … I’m really getting freak nervous with the stupid queer that made this piece of shit …
