The program allows users to easily import their bookmarks from Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Opera or a HTML file. Support for private browsing is also implemented, as well as the handy Do Not Track functionality in case you want to hide yourself from pesky websites. Even if the Preferences dialog is different from the one implemented in the Mozilla Firefox web browser, it contains almost the same options and categories of settings, including Tabs, Privacy, and Password Manager.
