Open Source Add-on Rewrites the User Interface of IE11

Posted by timothy on Friday December 20, 2013 @08:17PM from the people-still-use-ie? dept.

An anonymous reader writes "This is how Internet Explorer would look if you move the tabs to the top like in other browsers. Developed as a design and UX study, the open source add-on replaces the default navigation bar and combines three traditionally separate toolbars into one. The UX project started in 2004 to demonstrate that it is feasible to combine the address, search, and find box into one. Additionally, Quero offers a variety of customization options for IE, including making the UI themeable or starting Microsoft's desktop browser always maximized."

Re:Did they implement AdBlock and FlashBlock? by jones_supa · 2013-12-20 22:02 · Score: 4, Informative

Sure.
AdBlock Plus supports IE.
As for blocking Flash, click the gear menu and tick Safety -> ActiveX Filtering. As Flash is an ActiveX plugin in IE, this blocks Flash by default. You then can whitelist individual sites by using the blue address bar icon.
