Re: [PCTECH] Alternative browsers

[Scott Johnson <sjohnson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It works for me too.

Adam, do you have the "This Window" extension installed?  I do and I am 
wondering if that is causing it to function 'properly'.  I have a lot of other 
extensions installed too, but this one seems to be the most related.

I would have to say that the extensions are one of the biggest reasons for 
switching to Firefox and Thunderbird. Only Pop-ups and security ranking above 
them in my book.
