While of course you can add all of the above features to both Chrome and Firefox yourself, it’s nice to find them as standard on a browser.Īs you would also expect from a ‘secure’ browser, Dragon also includes modes for Private browsing, and also the ever handy Incognito mode for those people wanting to… buy Christmas and birthday presents for their other half…ahem. It’s a small but welcome little addition.Ĭomodo’s PrivDog browser extension also forms a really strong online privacy function by automatically blocking advertising networks which are attempting to track your activity. We particularly like the Web Inspector, which lets you scan any URL you want to visit and see if the site contains malware before you go there. One of the unique features is the included access to Comodo’s Secured DNS server network, which as well as enhancing privacy and on many websites and considerably faster browsing in some cases, also acts as a kind of ‘proxy’ firewall, and also serves as a low-level Virtual Private Network (VPN), which is nice, especially for users wanting to bypass their own Internet supplier’s infrastructure. Where Dragon becomes markedly different from other browsers though is in the level of security it offers without any input from its users. In terms of actual usability, there’s no real difference, other than the fact that both maintain compatibility with things like stored passwords, add-ons and extensions, without causing headaches. But the company also offer Ice Dragon as well, which is loosely based on the Firefox engine. Dragon (this one) is as we mentioned, built on the Chrome engine. Comodo actually offers two free browsers. They are both internet browsers, and they both do the same thing. The answer is that there isn’t a huge difference between them, if any, in real terms. It’s claws and fangs also help ensure privacy and personal security, but not on the internet.
A real Comodo Dragon is neither based upon Chromium or Firefox, and is surprisingly fast.
