File Menu is accessed via 'Control the Current Page'(Paper icon at top right). Bookmarks Toolbar can be switched off via 'Customise...'(spanner icon at top right)

yes but then you lose bookmarks from what I can see

plus it hasn't got the shotcuts of.net .com and .org which was the reason why i switched over to FF

looks ok, seems to be lacking options with most things hidden away, nothing there that is worth all the hype it's getting

memory usage isn't that great either and the numbers in about:memory don't add up

Spanner > Options > Show Home button on toolbar.

With me, it imported all my settings from Firefox, where I had a bookmark bar and it is in the exact same order.

Has anyone seen the task manager? Right-click on the tab bar at the top

Hm, no adblock, and I don't think I like this 'most visited' feature much. It gives you the option for increased privacy, but out of the box it makes the browsing history even more evident. Definitely back to FF for me. At least until an ad blocker is available.

jellybaby · 02-09-2008, 21:57

Gone back to firefox...can't cope with my scrolling bug

When you click on the '+' at the top for a new tab, the bookmarks toolbar reappears for use.
