Cheers Soeren. Here are some links that may be relevant: - move-mails-across-email-accounts - gmail topic=25414 As for web based e-mail, Lycos is very nice and works well with K-Meleon, I might say the same for Yahoo Classic.

I had a similar desire to disable all plugins many months ago, now when I look at about:plugins all I see is "No plug-ins are installed". The media player one was very annoying and required a trick to get rid of it. The key is here: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Plugin_scanning All details are in the "Disabling the plugin scan" section.

Nice work Siria. I hope to check out your 1.5.x macro when it becomes available. I still wish 'block images' had an option to leave placeholders, which could then be loaded with a right-click as desired, which is something I did all the time with IE5.

The fish comment amused me (it seems like something the k-meloen logo/mascot might say) and I also thought it was funny to see at least two of the fine folks interviewed say "I'm not a developer" (out of respect for the main developers), thus my light-hearted way of introducing the link. I meant no disrespect to Alex.Tarantul of course, and in fact he noted that more interviews may

Hiya James. I have no part in KM's future (I use Win98 and understand very little of what goes on around here administratively) but for what it's worth I can offer you my opinion about the basic look of things, focusing on the front page.

I'm glad that was helpful and I hope you considered picking your own shortcut keys after a peek at desga2's link up above. ;-) And, if you had to reboot I'd guess that you're using KM's optional, problematic memory resident preloader thing (loader.exe) that starts with Windows. Which means you didn't have to reboot, you just had to shut down the loader somehow.

Excellent information and corrections, Siria. Learning new stuff every day: very good point about the menu modifying exclamation point (!). Your simplified code is definitely the best choice by far (I'll edit my posting to reflect this). The trick of adding an ID after a "|" to determine menu order is new to me, but it still leaves a bit to be desired, such as when dealing with

Regarding sites known to have targeted links, I didn't think to mention this earlier but when I don't want such links to create new windows I drag the link and drop it on the current tab in order to force it to open in the current window.

Hey, neat, Daveski. To be honest, with all of the German brainpower behind the project in recent years I wouldn't mind if it got renamed to K-Mäleon.

Cool. K-Meleon (1.5.4) is certainly a gem for Win98, especially with the privacy bar that can easily toggle all resource intensive things like javascript, flash or even images. My everyday PC is a similar low end machine running Windows 98 and I've found there are still many developers creating free, effective and elegant software that run perfectly on a really old PC and OS like min

Summarizing what might have happened: Some installers remove only the files they originally installed while others remove everything in the program folder. Perhaps KM is the latter kind and perhaps in this case KM was accidentally installed into the root of the Program Files folder and when it was uninstalled it tried to take everything with it. Such things have apparently happened before: q
