Arora is a free and open source lightweight cross-platform web browser.[2][3][4][5] It runs on Linux, Mac OS X, Windows, FreeBSD, OS/2, Haiku,[6] and any other platforms supported by the Qt toolkit.
Arora's features include bookmarks, history, tabbed browsing, smart location bar, OpenSearch, session management, privacy mode, download manager, WebInspector and AdBlock.[7] The developer suspended his involvement in the project for several months due to uncertainty over a non-compete clause, but as of July 2011, he officially quit developing Arora.[8]
Arora's name is a palindrome.
