Importance of Web Browser

A web browser is an important tool for visiting web pages. Most browsers of today have a toolbar which is a row of icons that activate certain functionality when the user click on it. Often the browser toolbars add functionality and ease-of-use to the end user. There are many popular third party web browser toolbars like Google Toolbar, Yahoo Toolbar, Alexa Toolbar, Weather Toolbar, Dictionary.com Toolbar and more.

Web browsers are the most-commonly-used type of HTTP user agent. Although browsers are typically used to access the World Wide Web, they can also be used to access information provided by Web servers in private networks or content in file systems.

The "browser wars" have long been considered over, regardless of the final outcome of the U.S. court cases against Microsoft or speculation that the European Union will succeed in breaking up the company even if the U.S. doesn't.

You can get a more cutting-edge version of this open-source software by trying Firefox. Also,
while Mozilla has e-mail and html-editor components, Firefox is just the browser portion. For some reason, browsing the categories and subcategories of an online store satisfies a basic human shopping need of seeing the contents of a store in a way that searching does not. In fact, retail sites usually host three times as many browsers as they do searchers, making the stakes in creating successful browsing quite high.
