Indeed a mozilla/ Firefox copy, or am I wrong?

A pale imitation, at best.

I didn't see anything about extensions, for example -- one of the best features of Firefox.

And, of course, no cross-platform support.

And, last but not least, world-famous Microsoft security.

Yes, they do set the bar rather low, don't they. How can anyone beat them in this category?

Quite interesting.

This could mean MS is up for an IP-offensive, and since they already had a battle with Eolas over this which almost cost them much $, they maybe decided to don't infringe the patent again. The patent is now owned by the University of California, see http://lxer.com/module/db/go/13/6317/
