Okay I have a few question on K-Meleon:

1. How do I add a Google Search Bar?
2. Can I add an "x" to each tab so I can close them?
3. How can I get rid of the favorites, history, and print buttons?
4. How can I stop K-Meleon from auto-switching to a tab I just opened?

1) You not can. Exist a SearchBar plugin but not works fine in last 1.5 version need update it.

2) No, you not can. It's useless, you can close tabs with middle click or double click.

3) You must edit toolbars.cfg file of your current skin folder. Edit -> Configuration -> Toolbars, and "# -- TO HIDE A BUTTON, ADD '#' TO THE LEFT OF ALL THE BUTTON'S LINES --", save changes in file and restart K-Meleon. More Documentation. Also you can changed your toolbars.cfg by this.

4) Open tabs in Background: More info about.

P.S.: Look in Preferences Browsing (section) and Tabbed Browsing (subsection).

With 1.5.0 I too commented out the menu buttons. But when I got to the last button, the Close button, no matter how I tried to comment it out the Close button would still be on the tool bar, either as the red "x" or the word "Close" and the button would not work. This occured to any button that was the last button commeted out. For example, when commenting out ALL buttons and the last button was "Favorites" the same problem would occur with the Favorites button.

The work-around was to comment out all menu buttons except the "Close button." Then to get rid of the Close button, remove the checkmark beside
Tab/Window Buttons in the View > Toolbars menu.

@ caktus:

I think that you forget commented some "{" or "}" and this can generated this problem.

Can you post toolbars.cfg file that your problem happend?

Not commenting out the "{" or "}" did result in the symptoms I mentioned. But if I recall correctly commenting out both "{" and "}" did not remove the button. I don't want to recreate the problem with my current install of 1.5.0 as it is finally working exactly as I want, and is redering pages so quickly (much faster than 1.5a1.) But I will creat a new install of 1.5.0 to recreate the problems and post the results.

@desga2

Upon installing 1.5.0 I enabled IE Favorites in Preferences.

I then successfully commented out the "Stop", "Home", "Bookmarks" Favorites", "History", "Mail" and "Zoom In" buttons.

When I tried to comment out the "Zoom Out" button KM displayed a message that "K-meleon wasn't closed out properly. Do you wan to resume you last browsing session." regardless weather I clicked on "Yes" or "No" KM would consume 97% of CPU resourses and would not open.
This is how I commented out the "Zoom Out" button:

# Zoom Out{
# %ifplugin macros
# macros(Zoom_Out)|_Zoom_Out
# Zoom Out. Right-click for more options.
# %else
# ID_FONT_DECREASE
# Zoom Out Text
# %endif
# zoomhot.bmp[1]
# zoomcold.bmp[1]
# }

This is the same way I commented out the "Zoom In" button. After UNcommenting out the "Zoom Out" button then KM would open normally.

Leaving the "Zoom Out" button UNcommented out I contenued to the "New Tab" button which commented out successfully.

The next button I attempted to comment out was the "Close" button. When I tried to open KM, KM displayed a message that "K-meleon wasn't closed out properly. Do you wan to resume you last browsing session." regardless weather I clicked on "Yes" or "No" KM would consume 97% of CPU resourses and would not open.
This is how I commented out the "Close" button:

# Close{
# %ifplugin tabs
# ID_CLOSE_TAB|Close
# Close Tab. Right-click for more options.
# %else
# ID_FILE_CLOSE|Close
# Close Window. Right-click for more options.
# %endif
# layerwindowhot.bmp[3]
# layerwindowcold.bmp[3]
# }

When I tried this:

Close{
# %ifplugin tabs
# ID_CLOSE_TAB|Close
# Close Tab. Right-click for more options.
# %else
# ID_FILE_CLOSE|Close
# Close Window. Right-click for more options.
# %endif
# layerwindowhot.bmp[3]
# layerwindowcold.bmp[3]
# }

just to see what would happen, the "Close" button was replalced by "Privacy" options buttons.

When I tried this:

Close{
# %ifplugin tabs
# ID_CLOSE_TAB|Close
# Close Tab. Right-click for more options.
# %else
# ID_FILE_CLOSE|Close
# Close Window. Right-click for more options.
# %endif
# layerwindowhot.bmp[3]
# layerwindowcold.bmp[3]
}

just to see what would happen, The "Privacy" options buttons were replaced by a text "Close" button.

I then UN commented out the "Close" button which of course reinstated the "Close" button.

Then I UNcommented out the "Favorites" button and commented out the "Close" button, but this time as prviousely KM displayed the message that "K-meleon wasn't closed out properly. Do you wan to resume you last browsing session." regardless weather I clicked on "Yes" or "No" KM would consume 97% of CPU resourses and would not open. Appearantly I was doing something differently when UNcommenting out the "Favorites" buttom which permitted the "Close" button to be commented out.

In any case it seems that first removing as many buttons as possible from Preverences and Veiw > Toolbars is the safest way to go.

Your problen is that you let toolbar definitions empty, with out any button defined in toolbar. This is that do K-Meleon not start and have 99% of CPU.

You must commented the toolbar definition when this are empty, with out any button in it.

This is the toolbars.cfg code with the buttons you indicate to comment, LOOK as i commented the toolbar definition when this is empty (all buttons in toolbar are commented) for example "Mail/&News Buttons" and "&Zoom Buttons":
