Well... Since I'm using a very low-end PC, I need a lightweight, fast and stable web browser.
Maybe someone here could make it (just like Trout or nDroid), so the people on the forum could add more features to it, via add-ons or something.
I'd love ahk web browser because it's flexible and anyone can modify it to their own taste =)

you could:
Add an IE control
then make 'plug-ins' with COM and/or javascript.
or stand-alone plugins like my mass IE image downloader/viewer (not released).

been asked a few times before though.
general answer is "kinda pointless because it'd be a pain to program all the web compatibility stuff" (or something like that).

I can recommend http://kmeleon.sourceforge.net/ and opera 10 (10.5 just new) they run on low end systems quite well in my experience and you can still use "web 2.0"

http://www.fenrir-inc.com/us/sleipnir/ looks interesting as well.

Otherwise you will need to look for browsers lacking lots of features such as http://offbyone.com/offbyone/ it will be fast but you'll miss out on the goodies and sites will not work.

Tip for folks who use the simplebrowser script, if the picture buttons(forward,back,stop,etc.) in the browser are fuzzy remove the w20 and h20 options from Gui, Add, Picture lines; that should fix it.

When I tried to execute simplebrowser.ahk, I got this error message.
Error: Call to nonexistent function
Specifically: COM_AtlAxWinTerm()

Well I've tried Firefox, SeaMonkey, Opera 10. But they're slow. Currently trying Crazy Browser (based on IE).
The OffbyOne browser looks like my hex editor application =P it's fast enough, when I tried to go to ahk.com/forum it's not viewed properly, but it's okay on the speed side.

you must have COM.ahk in your lib folder

Now it works! Thanks Tank.
But I decided to change the picture to Gui, Add, Button, x436 y7 h20 g_go v_go default, Go
Because the icons won't show even when I omit the w20 h20.

PLEASE...if you test/find any solutions...PLEASE DO NOT...use any solution that just wraps IE...IE is insecure no matter what you use to wrap it with...anything tank suggests will be based on IE...

If you want really low-end & text-only, try Lynx (I have NO idea what platforms that runs on {I know it does on Linux, but I dunno about Windows})...Lynx would at least get you a text-based AutoHotkey forum access...

So other than not-IE I have no suggestions for low-end computers...(cept to try old Firefox versions...maybe even try really old Phoenix versions {Phoenix was the name for Firefox early on})...I also believe there is a COM Firefox/Gecko control, but I haven't Googled for it...if you go COM, go Firefox/Gecko (Gecko is the layout engine Firefox uses)...

says the anonimous flamer who presents no supporing facts.

The internet is insecure. If a hacker wants to own your data IE is the least of your worries. Port sniffers. email. And any browser that allows access to your hard drive and yes they all do even your prescious little fire fox. Security on the internet is an illusion suffered only by the ignorant. The best defence is not being a target. Dont download software dont file share these are the real security threats dont fill out forms online for supposedly free stuff. Avoid phishing emails. But as usual the idiotic fan fair of haters like to blame the gun instead of the frakking idiot holding it
