Diver - My new web browser!

As some of you may know, I have my own games/web/software development company! I've now developed Diver, a new web browser! It can be downloaded here! Diver has some unique features:

- Hotspots for going to pages/searching or doing other things
- A working guide, complete with news from online
- A working updates/software info page in the guides that tell you about new updates
- Easily install new browser updates directly from Diver
- Nice colors, fast and lightweight
- Dual browsing feature
- Auto-Surf


Made in Visual Basic 2010, you may need additional software to run such as .NET framework, but you most likely you will already have it. OS: Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 8.1 Preview (Made in Windows 8.1 Preview).

Planned features:

- Settings
- Tabbed browsing
- Custom colors


More updates on the way soon! Hope you enjoy!

Does it use IE browser engine (the web browser control in VB) or Webkit (or some other engine)?

I believe it uses IE browser engine. How do you get Webkit?

Wait though, when I build it I get errors:

I put it in exactly right, following the instructions on webkit site.

I have had problems with it before, but I have also had it working. I am not sure why it does that.

I'd love to see a screenshot, can't test due to lack of Windows. Might try it on wine later though.

Yes, I am aware of that, that is due to the WebKit not compiling properly. Should be fixed soon.

This is not a virus. Infact, it doesn't even run as it is currently broke
