Quotegrob I thought about 2 other things that could be implemented and i want to hear your feedback. The first feature that i thought is when you put the cursor on a tab, the screen could show the tab's content semi-transparent in order to know the activity of the tab without having to press it. That could make the user's navigation faster on many ocations, and could be optional.

adodupan from Bosnia. Maybe he moved on? He said he would. His 1.8 is contemporary of 74. Referer = which page send You. Sometimes You do not want the page to know. Some pages may bar You if You do not allow the browser to send referer info. Referer info can be spoofed/faked. p.s. IMHO people from adodupan's area have a sense of humour that is not understood by people from othe

Most likely. Update of virus software, changed setting or new virus software. Make sure that the protections software is in learning mode and make sure that K-Meleon has the right to go to the internet. Put protection program into learning mode and allow K-Meleon.exe.
