Hi friends, is there any browser available on the market which can be used by multiple users with separate usernames and passwords like an OS? So that each user will have his or her own private browsing history which another user cannot access so that he or she can ask the browser to remember the username and password of any particular site without the fear of others accessing it. This would be helpful in a public computer.

You can use the Firefox itself. To maintain the user name, passwords and bookmarks for each of the account , you need to install the add on "x marks" which is available under the add ons. After synchronizing with the server, your user names and passwords will be saved in their server and each individual can access their own x marks account while browsing. But as the passwords are saved in their server, it is not advisable to save the passwords. Even without entering the passwords or even without installing the x marks, you can enter into your individual accounts. But the others will also be able to enter into the others account if x marks are not installed. Else you may install the Norton 360 anti virus software, which has the same feature except book marking. This will be the best choice than x marks. You may try with the trial version.This software will also be able to control and monitor the systems attached to your network.

Hi!! Yeah there is a browser called Avant Browser where in you can create user profiles and have individual accounts.When you install the browser it would ask you to create a profile and then you just need to follow the procedures.I haven't used that browser much and m happy with Mozilla Fire fox.Avant browser uses the same engine as Fire fox and hence its quick in loading pages and works very fast.You can try this browser for sure,its free,safe from malware and also supports java scripts :).Have a good day!!
