Using stumble I came across this neat little web browser called flock. Compared to Mozilla Firefox, Flock is very similar with it's features. Things that are similar include the addon manager, interface, options window, and the download manager. It seems every browser these days such as Internet Explorer have integrated a upper left search bar using popular search engines such as Google. Flock also has this feature although it operates slightly different from other browsers. Flock also gives you the options to transfer all your passwords, bookmarks and tool bar shortcuts from Firefox which is quite convenient when first using flock.
I have noticed also that flock loads images and site content faster than Firefox and Internet Explorer. I have not tried to download using flock yet but I can only hope things are a bit better. If you decided to use flock be aware that you are stuck with it's default theme. Since flock is fairly new to the public you won't find absolutely any themes for the browser which might be a turn off for some. Feel free to develop your own if you know how since the flock themes page openly suggests you to do so. Flock also comes with a blog editor which lets users post directly to popular blogging sites such as blogger.
Another useful tool is the favorites icon which lets users quickly bookmark a page without using a menu or a hot key. By default flock uses yahoo as it's search engine but you can change this to any search engine if you like.
