Bangalore-based firm launches Indian web browser
Bangalore: Indians have a new cause to celebrate with the launch of the first Indian made web browser aptly called 'Epic'. Released by a Bangalore-based software firm, Hidden Reflex, Epic is based on the Mozilla platform.

The unique feature that sets Epic apart from other browsers is that it has a built-in antivirus protection. The integrated antivirus and antispyware has been powered by ESET.

The web browser can be customized as per the user's desire. You can change the background and themes according to your preference. And there are over 1,500 free themes to choose from. The browser's has a number of apps in its sidebar like Twitter, Facebook, Orkut etc. You can directly launch them from the sidebar.

The Epic is highly Indian in its look and feel. The 'Indic' app in the browser lets you type in 12 Indian languages.

The browser makers claim maximum privacy by giving features such as one-click private data deletion, flash cookie deletion built-in and no storage of browsing history. Faster downloads and browsing are some of the other claims made by the Epic developers. So what are you waiting for? Go check and experience it for yourself. After all such innovations reinforce our feelings of being a proud Indian.

5: For the first time, I felt fully utilizing the potential of my widescreen monitor space. This browser did make me feel satisfied the first time to use the wide screen for something other than watching videos. good features, i am not sure if it supports zotero, if it does this is it. Good work in the word processor plugin and all. Kudos to the 'EPIC' browser development team from Hidden reflex. A Sixer in the first delivery. good work.

the way they have provided interfaces to all the googles and socialnetworks and apps is really cool.
