It looks like I spoke too soon, J.G., because I'm getting those "browser may not be secure" messages from Gmail again. Based on earlier problems I've had with Google on other browsers, including their own, it isn't necessarily the browser's fault; Google is at least partly to blame.

Regarding browsers that break various websites, I've found that the last Gecko version of KM kept reporting invalid certificates on many of the sites I visited frequently, most notably my online banking site and Gmail, which are very secure.

I'm using K-Meleon/76.4.5 Goanna on Windows 7, and am seeing some odd behavior: Once in a while after I close a tab the program stops responding to the mouse.
