    They do in FF2 I thought, at least they do in mine unless someone decided to actively try to stop it. I seem to remember it was also an available in the options dialog.

      Ah, the gale force winds here must have affected me. Didn't read your message properly. Besides I've taken to middle mouse clicking every link I try & open anyway unless I specifically want a new window.

          How many times have you spend 1 or 2 seconds searching for the refresh button on IE7. I am not yet used to the duel purpose button, i.e. go & refresh.

          The whole "menu bar at the bottom right instead of the top left" still drives me insane. Although I guess Windows Media Player and Windows Live Messenger do the same thing. A trend? :sigh:

                  yeah i know, i was confused when i saw that the first time. But it kinda makes sense not to have the menu bar take a vertical space all the time. IMO, How many times a average person does anything on the menubar when he/she is browsing. I would say rare, so i would say that it is a good adaptation of microsoft on usablity. But I never got used to the dual purpose refresh and go button. So, I wanted to just checkout in CP that if i am the only person who is having the problem, so I am not, so obviously the microsoft guys got it wrong with that button. :) -- modified at 15:14 Sunday 3rd December, 2006

                  I use the menu bar all the time. To print, to save, to edit, to turn off and then on again the brain dead popup blocker and to get to the internet options.

                    Precisely once. I hated the whole thing so much I uninstalled it and went back to IE6.
