K-Melon is Firefox without Bloat

By Martin English | May 23, 2008

From DownloadSquad:

K-Meleon is a light weight web browser for folks who don’t need a ton of plugins, options, or much of anything except for a good utility for viewing web sites. The browser uses the same rendering engine as Firefox, so pretty much any page that you can access in Firefox can also be opened in K-Meleon.

K-Meleon lacks some of the bells and whistles you’d find in Firefox, Internet Explorer, or Opera, which has the advantage of making it really fast, and (unlike Firefox) low in resource usage.

There is some customizing available, for example you can choose from a variety of skins and themes, there’s tabbed browsing, mouse gestures, pop up blocking, and macros.

The downside of the light foot print is that Firefox add-ons or Greasemonkey scripts won’t place nice.
