I know it has been a while 6months waitin for a change. However I have been usin it for the last six months and apart from the odd niggle. It is my favorite browser. Its the only one I use accept acasionally when I revert to the unmentionable big bloated sad one we slag (but only for I would say 4 minutes a week). I was using mozilla for a fair part of last year but found trouble getting some of the pluggins to work - as well as thinkin it was lookin too blouted.
I agree, I only use Window's native browser for the Windows Update website. Everything else is viewed via K-Meleon. So what if it crashes on Java occassionally and a few web pages load so slowly that there are temporary (one / two minutes tops) freezes. I like the speed and reliability of this browser.
Finally, so what if it takes six or more months to get a new version. I, for one, prefer having a stable release with few (if any) bugs to having a program crash left and right because of a huge number of bugs.
K-Meleon is my default and prefered browswer for now and hopefully forever.
