'''Off By One''' is a free and small (1.2 MB) [[web browser]] for [[Microsoft Windows]] and is a completely self-contained, stand-alone application with no dependencies on any other browser or browser component and full HTML 3.2 support. Off By One web browser is also available as an [[ActiveX]] or [[DLL]] Control for developers. Off By One uses the Webster corePro Control, a core [[Web Browser Object]], and does not support [[JavaScript]]. However, Off By One does support tabbed browsing (much like browsers using the [[Mozilla]] core), animated images (can be turned off), cookies (can be turned off or set as session-only), SSL (can be turned off or set as "fake"), new windows (can be turned off), meta refresh, and more.

Because of all the missing features (Javascript or Flash support), it is agreed to be fast and secure web-browser. But especially its way of caching is quite different compare to other browsers, namely, it utilises a so-called "memory-resident caching". It means that all the information commonly cached in other web-browsers is kept only in computer's memory untill the Off By One's process is closed. Therefore no data is stored on the hard-disk for the next session. This includes an on-line information about the user and visited pages ([[cookie]]s), and web-pages' data (documents, graphics, scripts), except for the Persistent [[HTTP]] cookies, which are stored in a single file in a directory where Off By One executable file is located.⏎
