BasicBrowser

A simple tabbed browser coded in Vb.Net.

You can Hold Alt to move the buttons around on the main interface. To reset, simply restart BasicBrowser.

Gecko (IE8 alternative)

Now with GeckoFX. As a result, please extract the XULRunner misc files.rar archive to the Debug (or Release if you are compiling to there) folder before running BasicBrowser (you can compile it without problems though). The main DLLs of XULRunner are copied automatically by compiling.

As of November 2014, this repo has the Gecko branch, it was previously in Walkman100/BasicBrowser. The hybrid branch has also been transferred here, since it is essentially BasicBrowserGecko with the ability to open IE tabs as well.
