Thanks for the review of the new *cough*satan-enabled*cough* browser; I'm always on the look-out for something that might do what I need old IE and Opera for in one browser... but I guess this won't be it, either. >.<

Have I pimped Opera to you yet? *dimples* It's not the smartest of browsers, but compared to what I hear about FF, it's the same thing - only, you know, without the need to download a truckload of add-ons and widgets and *stuff* to make it work. Love the 'user view' feature, which puts every page imaginable into black on white background with Times New Roman font (though I think this can be toggled in the preferences, just like other stuff). Also, the newest one has a shite ugly look *ugh* but once I dl-ed the old Classic Opera layout/skin and customized the bars (and there's a lot of toolbars and stuff available - certainly more than I need) it looked it's usual charming self. Also, love being able to turn cookies on and off at will, as well as the referer-disabling option, and let me not wax poetic about turning images off to cached so paged load the text much, much faster.

Anyways, yeah. If you get tired of FF give Opera a try - it's small to dl, and can be removed just as easily if it doesn't work out.
