A new web browser has been released that promises total privacy for its users. Browzar, as it is known, automatically deletes all traces of the pages a person has visited,  and the terms that they have searched for on the web. Most browsers, including Microsoft's Internet Explorer and Apple's Safari, allow users to do this manually. The developers of Browzar say that it will be useful for people who want to protect their privacy on work PCs or when using shared PCs in Internet cafes. Browzar is an "Internet Explorer shell" - a program that sits on top of Internet Explorer (IE) to change the look of Microsoft's web browser and some of its functions. Earlier this year, web analysis firm One Stat released figures that showed that Internet Explorer had an 84% market share. In 2004, that share stood at 95%. Rival browsers such as Firefox and Opera have been gaining significant inroads into the browser market. At present the free download is available for PCs running Microsoft Windows. It is currently offered as a beta, while new versions for Apple Macs and Linux machines are expected soon.
