He was talking about 1.3 final, why would someone download 1.3b? For what it''s work, 1.3b is fine for me (built for GTK+ 2 in *nix, used through the CVS version of Galeon 1.3).

Please. Opera is the most anal browser on the planet, and you have to pay.

Not really, the banner is by far outhweighted by its superior looks and speed.

Internet Explorer is my favorite. Yeah opera kind of stinks, those "gestures" annoy the hell out of me.
And so, the evil religion thread stole the wonderful "What the Heck?" thread's throne. Truly a sad day for gamedev.

The gestures are sweet, makes surfing a lot more effective and fun. But you can turn them off if you dont want them (but if you get used to them youll never go back).

You can get gestures for Mozilla too.

I can't stand IE. No tabbed browsing, pop-ups, and it spies on you (keeps a hidden history folder that never gets cleared).

Edit: for the hidden folder, append Content.IE5\ to the end of your Temp Files or History path. The folder is hidden from the search feature and DOS dir command by the desktop.ini file in it. If you delete the file, it will be re-made next time you restart your computer.

I assume that by "hidden" you really mean "sitting there in plain view in Windows explorer" ?

Now as for the topic of this thread ... I''m about to go download 1.3. Hopefully it will be a bit more stable than the betas.

Chess is played by three people. Two people play the game; the third provides moral support for the pawns. The object of the game is to kill your opponent by flinging captured pieces at his head. Since the only piece that can be killed is a pawn, the two armies agree to meet in a pawn-infested area (or even a pawn shop) and kill as many pawns as possible in the crossfire. If the game goes on for an hour, one player may legally attempt to gouge out the other

I was at my girlfriends too... and I didn''t wet my pants over Mozilla 1.3.

I am afraid it is not that exciting.

Too bad this new Mozilla still doesn't have a feature I really wanted: block ANY FILE from a server (not only images). I can't stand these *.js advertising thingies on some forums (you know, the kind of thing that follows you if you scroll, slowing down the scrolling process).

For the record, Opera sucks bad. Mozilla is nice, although I tend to use IE most of the time.

Considering that the SUPAR SEKRIT files it talks about are plainly visible in explorer, I''m not too worried.

1.3a sucked bad. It crashed all the time on me.
1.3b has worked fine since I got it.
1.3 finished and refuses to install correctly on my computer, from what looks to be a bug in the installer. So I''m still with 1.3b, which has never goofed up on me since I got it.



By chance are you running W98? My brother reported installation problems too and he''s running W98. I''m running W2K and didn''t have any installation problems at all. So far 1.3 has worked like a charm for me.
