I knew Ajaz at Freeserve. He was ‘founder’ only in as much as he came up with a JV idea for an ISP with Hewlett Packard called Channel 6. It was a turkey – I was the management accountant who worked the numbers!

Then John Pluthero and Peter Wilkinson of (what became) Energis thrashed out the ‘free offering’ and Sir Stanley Kalms sort of loved it although he didn’t completely understand it, so they let John Pluthero run with it as CEO.

Ajaz was up in Leeds doing a bit of Business Development, telling anybody who’d listen that he was a founder. Hmmmm.

Compare Ajaz Ahmed(winging it in a bedroom in Huddersfield) and John Pluthero(Chairman of Cable and Wireless UK, succesful ex CEO who turned Energis around).

I’d buy C&W shares before downloading Browzar!

You have been warned. A man still shouting about business ideas of 8 years ago is going nowhere in my humble opinion…..

PS He only made low six figures from Freeserve

thosie, the claim I made about Browzar tracing history can be seen here. It's the asterisk (*) link included in the 3rd point of the list I posted.

Darn, I’ve been had. I should have downloaded this piece of nonsense before I wrote about it. As always, they added in affiliate links to generate revenue so that they can keep on giving out a free IE addon. Any IE version below IE7 is also crap. I’ll stay clear of this software and stick to Firefox and the wonderful Maxtron Browser that takes up little memory even after opening 30 Tabs. Good day
