Glad they got the record. Shows how popular it is and that has a knock on effect of getting other browsers to speed up and clean up their acts! Got to be good for us all in the long run.

I would like to know why you uninstalled it again so quickly as well? Of course there have been major changes so you have to give it time to get used to them. It seems to me to be much faster than 2.0, the history etc has changed but seems good? You don't seem to have given it a fair shake if you just looked and said no thanks?

I like it because my eyes aren't so good and I can see it clearly! It's Georgia by the way. I use it on all my forums and never had a complaint yet.

I wasn't being funny by the way, just curious.

LOL I don't want to be the kettle calling the pot black m8, but yes it is. Truly terrible, I can hardly see that with someone elses eyes and night vision goggles.

That is fair enough then, atleast you have a valid reason unlike others who will just say "because I want to"

As for PP Mguire, that font on the other hand is beautiful!

Maybe I was more prepared because I was using BonEcho, which was the Firefox 2 browser which had been "doctored" by someone to work with x64 bit, so my favourits were already set up?
