new version : K-Meleon-Linux-usable-1.8.1-plus2

I have uploaded to Rapidshare.com a new plus2 version, that is suitable
to use in Linux with the Wine emulator, or also in Windows,
with AdBlock and NoScript added.
For Windows, also Active X Support has been added.
K-Meleon-Linux-usable-1.8.1-plus2 is a simplified version of K-Meleon 1.x ,
updated to Mozilla 1.8.1.2 using Gecko/20070222 from Seamonkey 1.1.1 final.
New chrome thanks to Guenter.
Look and feel are similar to the earlier 0.9 versions.
The profiles folder will be created inside the K-Meleon main folder, as before.
If, when in Linux, you want this folder inside the wine configuration directory because of property rights problems, rename the file profile.ini
inside the K-Meleon main folder to for example profile.ini-renamed
before the first start.

Download as zip at :
http://rapidshare.com/files/20036192/K-Meleon-Linux-usable-1.8.1-plus2.zip.html
or as tarball at :
http://rapidshare.com/files/20037601/K-Meleon-Linux-usable-1.8.1-plus2.tar.gz.html

Note :
This version works only if you have the files mfc71.dll, msvcp71.dll
and msvcr71.dll in your system or in your K-Meleon folder.
If you need them, they are still available under the name
dll-installer on the KM 8.2 website at :

http://www.lontronics.nl/index.php?m=0006

This will install the files on your system .
If necessary in Linux, copy the files manually to the K-Meleon main folder.
If an error message should appear at the second startup, click the button again and remove later the hook for "always ask"in Edit/ManageProfiles.
History must be deleted manually in the profile folder, after having closed the browser.

When used in Linux with Wine:

It's preferable to use "windows only" mode without layers for better stability.
It is not advisable to use groups of more than 3 or 4 websites, better use no groups at all to avoid browser failures.
A minor flaw, that has not been fixed yet, is that the URL bar sometimes
won't change to show the actual URL after clicking links.
If fonts should not work in wine, copy fonts from your windows installation
to the " .wine " configurations folder, to the subfolder "fonts" and restart the browser.
Take care that you have the needed permissions to write and execute.
If necessary, let the browser create the profiles folder inside the .wine configuration folder by renaming profile.ini in the K-Meleon folder as described.
Certain instabilities should be tolerated when K-Meleon is used in Linux.
