I've been installing it for ages. Just loaded it up and from the name was expecting a graphical curses browser but was rather pleasantly surprised. Time to keep an eye on the source and try to find out how likely it is to avoid exploits that affect firefox. (with javascript disabled, theres no point striving for the impossible) Just looking at the library's and memory usage I'd probably have to say close but I'm not yet sure if it get's the cigar. Looks like it fits it's intended anticlutter and maximum screen real estate intentions but it would be nice if security was one of it's main aims. It does appear to be a third of the size of firefox though :-)
