}}'''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. It provides full [[HTML]] 3.2 support. The Off By One web browser is also available as an [[ActiveX]] or [[DLL]] control for developers. Off By One uses the Webster Pro Control, a core [[Web Browser Object]], and does not support [[JavaScript]] or [[Cascading Style Sheets]]. However, Off By Oneit does support tabbed browsing, animated images (can be turned off), [[HTTP cookie|cookies]] (can be turned off or set as session-only), [[Transport Layer Security|SSL]] (canusing [[OpenSSL]] (can also be turned off or set as "fake"), new windows (can be turned off), meta refresh, and more.

Because of a lack of some features (such as JavaScript and Flash support), Off By One is generally considered to be a fast and secure web-browser. Its method of caching is quite different from that of most other browsers (although [[Opera_(web_browser)|Opera]] can be configured to behave similarly). It utilizes so-called "memory-resident caching". This means that all the information commonly cached in other web-browsers is kept only in the computer's memory until Off By One's process is closed. No data are stored on the hard-disk for the next session. This includes on-line information about the user and visited pages (cookies), and web-pages' data (documents, graphics, scripts), except for the persistent [[HTTP]] cookies, which are stored in a single file in a directory where the Off By One executable file is located.

Off By One runs on Windows 95, 98, ME, NT, 2000, and XP. It is available as a zip archive or an installer.

Off By One by default displays the [[user agent]] identifier "Mozilla/3.0 (compatible; OffByOne; &sys) Webster Pro V3.2" which is editable in Off By One's configuration file.
