You can only see that button when you are playing a video. The only addon I have related to download is flashgot and I use a Free download manager that had an addon in 3.5 but not now. Well I can't disable the addon right because of downloads.

Yeah It's the flashgot. Funny thing is that I don't see any options there mentioning this. Only turning it off made me realize it was 1 of it's functions.
Hey at least it's positive thing if anyone was looking for addon with this function.

The latest version of flashgot has got me annoyed.... I ask for one video and it inevitably simultaneously tries to download every object on the page... hundreds of them. The instructions say I should get a button to let me choose the object to download but I don't see it. grrrrrrrrrrr. (keeps dinkering)

FireFox 5.0 should have been FireFox 4.1 more like... Why are they adopting Chrome like version numbers? I think major versions should be reserved for major changes, there isn't anything major enough about 4.0 -> 5.0 imho. 6.0 will be released in like a few weeks from now. Too fast! What happened to 5.x?

This Firefox x.0 release every 6 weeks is just something we're stuck with for the time being. It's Mozilla's way of forcing new features/fixes on users quickly and discontinuing long term security updates for old versions starting with Fx4. In other words, get used to updating Firefox every six weeks or you'll miss out on critical security updates. For this reason they are also considering implementing forced background auto-updates similar to Chrome. This type of versioning/update strategy works dandy for all types of Google apps, so it can't be that bad, but who knows if the experiment will work as well for Mozilla. It will turn into a nightmare if the majority of users actively refuse to update, and are still on Fx4 when Fx8 is released at years end.

I suppose the main problem would be if the changes between release is big enough that addons would break and if addon developers aren't quick enough to update their respective addons.
As long as those two things do not occur, then it should be fine, for the most part. Most Firefox users do update their browsers. |

Okay, after using Chrome for a month, I decided to revisit FF and get it updated to 5.0, and this included the Flash player and the Java Runtime Engine. Unfortunately after updating the PC bloody hung up again while browsing through Japanator; must be the Flash plugin fighting with the system hardware, which is possibly incompatible (less than optimal specs) or whatever is going on.
Ah, I'll stick to Chrome from this point onward (until I assemble a PC that can handle heavy websites); it's still surprisingly stable even as I wade through some Flash-heavy sites.

Opera 11.50 is out.
I hate the new monochrome, iTunes 10 inspired skin. Minimalistic design taken way too far. |

Well, the new monochrome theme is really ugly. It's a chance I'm still using a old theme (10.5 Clean Version 3.5 ).
http://imgur.com/xyX6o Oh and, renegade. opera:config#Show%20Dropdown%20Button%20In%20Addre ssfield Opera have many thing that I hate like this, simple thing with no easy way to find it to unable. It's like the sessions if you want to start at the speeddial... Like if you close opera by error... You need to first create a custom no-use sessions to finally see the auto-save one... |

Since the final version is the same build as their last RC, there are still a few bugs around like the browser crashing if you drop a button onto a Speed Dial tab while customizing your layout and the Extensions Manager eating up way too much CPU time. I even had Opera 11.50 randomly using approximately 50% CPU on a dual-core earlier even though I had no flash videos or content/script heavy pages open. At the least it seems they've finally fixed the display corruption that occurs when you scroll a web page up or down while a tool tip is displayed.
@spikexp Have you seen any skins that keep the default theme but have the colored versions of the menu and panel icons? Edit: Never mind I found this: Opera 11 Modified coloured icons by Igor. Finally some color's back in the browser! Last edited by mechabao; 2011-06-29 at 02:31. |
