Can someone suggest a simple web browser that works on all sites without allowing crappy pop ups and 'ads etc.
Please don't suggest Chrome/Firefox/opera etc. these are the opposite of what I wantsmile
I don't need syncing etc. just a simple browser, it doesnt even need a favourites drop down!

TA for your relatively simple to understand explanation.
My current browser stops most ad's and crap etc. but some sites like the examples posted won't let me see their pages unless I have a browser of their choosing - Why - I'm baffled ??

Analogy - I suppose to turning up to fill up my 1970's Lotus at a petrol station - only to be told by cashier that I'm not welcome there, ONLY MODERN MOTORS are welcome to fill up here.

Of course AS A Paying CUSTOMER I fill up elsewhere - no problem at all!

a Short time later the first petrol station closes for good - OH WHAT A SHAMEsmilesmilesmile

Can you see what's gonna happen to those websites I [and plenty of others] can't access with our existing browser's??

They're gonna cease to exist:-

For sure my kit ain't newest [2.5-3 years old] - I like my current browser it does what I want when I want it to - I'm only changing for something which I find easier to use AND HAVE full CONTROL OF, I've tried Chrome/Firefox/Opera all try to dictate to me how my system/PC/browsing etc. happens.

It's my machine I'll have a system working the way I want it.

what I don't want is persistant reminders from the browser of their 'recomended partners' sites via flags/icons etc on my workdesk - the 3 browsers I've mentioned all insist on doing this.
Please don't tell me to switch this facility off YOU CAN'T.
How other's put up with this uneccessary crap is beyond me.
>
I'd happily pay for a simple Browser. The 3 freebies mentioned have to earn their keep somehow??

Come on coder's there's definitely a market for a simple to use browser without any commercial ties which only works for the usersmile
As I said in last post thanks for suggestions - I may try a few after checking reviews etc.
