The browser comes with built-in features such as tabbed browsing, spell checking, instant bookmarks, download management, and customizable search engines. Furthermore, users can enhance functionality through extensions contributed by third-party developers, with popular choices including the IE Tab for viewing IE-only web pages, Adblock Plus for blocking website ads, VideoDownloader for saving online videos, and NoScript for securing the computer.
