Because of all the missing features (Javascript or Flash support), it is agreed to be a fast and secure web-browser. But most of all, its way of caching is quite different compared to that of other browsers - namely, 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 untill Off By One's process is closed. Therefore 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.
