        Yeah, I didn't like the way they had the menu bar and the favorites bar enabled by default, I like IE7s interface because it was very minimal, but they are easy enough to disable. It does seem a little quicker but maybe thats just codeproject behaving it self more ;)

          They speak of something called 'Automatic Crash Recovery'. But when there is a crash in some ActiveX Control hosted in a particular tab, it is going to crash the entire browser right?

                        Very much. There might be a risk of running into a OS wipe-and-reinstall too, in extreme cases.

                                Most people disliked the hidden menu bar in the first IE7. That's why they changed it. For me, in practice I don't use menu bars very often. I find a combination of buttons + keyboard shortcuts more productive. But, I still like having the menu available for some reason.

                                  I have had to put it in to Emulate IE7 mode to make it usable though :/ codeproject was alright but pastebin.ca and hotmail were screwy.

                                      Is the ridiculous Security settings list-radio-tree control thing in Internet options is still there? I just want to turn off Javascript sometimes. That's J-a-v-a-s-r-i-p-t not A-c-t-i-v-e-s-c-r-i-p-t.

                                        Is the ridiculous Security settings list-radio-tree control thing in Internet options is still there? I just want to turn off Javascript sometimes. That's J-a-v-a-s-r-i-p-t not A-c-t-i-v-e-s-c-r-i-p-t.

                                        cheers, Chris Maunder

                                        That still looks the same as far as I can see.

                                        xacc.ide - now with IronScheme support
                                        IronScheme - 1.0 alpha 2 out now
