Portable Open Source browser QtWeb updates to version 2

The new version features even more customization options for menus, hotkeys, and buttons, including the ability to hide the main menu. Version 2 also adds a virtual keyboard for mouse-only surfing, a print preview option, a better download manager, and improvements to QTWeb's privacy tools. A number of bugfixes have also been implemented - the full list is available on the QT web site.
Two new features that developers will appreciate have been added. Web Inspector - a Firebug-like tool for examining web pages - makes it easy to analyze and troubleshoot code. The Inspector also includes a resources view (pictured) which tracks load times for individual elements on a page. Command line scripting has also been added, which allows dumping pages (including javascript-heavy ones) to a single file.
The installer, portable executable, and zipped portable version are all available from the QtWeb download page.

With Halloween fast approaching, it's a great time to get in some practice defending your territory against zombies.

Yep. That's what it says, right at the top of the QT website.

Looks interesting, I'm testing it right now. It's fast but has some quirks. It's the only browser not to insert www and .com when you press ctrl + domain. It has problems displaying Feedburner feeds in HTML. It doesn't have a decent URL Bar (no awesome-bar like behavior). And, a deal breaker for me, no adblocking support. I guess I'll be sticking with SRWare Iron for now.
