Thanks for the info. Can we add fanboy's tracking and annoyances list too? Like ABP + fanboy.co.nz and click to add.

@ico

How can I change the first option in the right-click (on a hyperlink) menu from "Open" to "Open in a Background Tab" in Opera ?


Offtopic: What happened to quick-reply ?

Works completely fine.

Please don't use imageshack, I can't view any of the images when I'm clicking them, this sucks

PS: I can view them if I click them, but if I middle click them they are blocked, this still sucks.

I am using AdSweep.In the description it says it isn't similar to AdBlock.Whats the difference?

As much as I can tell Adsweep does not show the ads but loads them(thus no bandwidth is saved), adblock prevents the loading by blocking the URL.

Adblock is the best... and one extension which I can't live without

btw, guys please answer a query on a thread which I posted, about Opera and Orbit DM.

IE9 final is released today and it's faster than previous versions

oh.oh... can't wait to try hands on with the shiny new toy "IE 9!!"
But just try, mind it. I am not hoping it could be made "default browser" any time sooner

Hell that browser is fast, but lack of addons and constant fear of emerging exploits deter me from using it.

Microsoft now has a very fast "page loader" which they didn't have earlier.

 

[pauldmps]

It has indeed become faster & smoother. But still scores only 96% in Acid3 test.

96 or 97 is fine. IE9 and Firefox 4 have not implemented SVG fonts and Firefox is not even interested in implementing it as it has no real world use as of now.

 

[Goten]

I cannot use IE9...((...Cheap microsoft bast#rds.

Peace~~~!

 

[Vyom]

^^ And why so??

 

[Liverpool_fan]

I would guess there are quite a few Win XP users left out cold by IE9.

 

[dreatica]

how to test GPU/HW accelerator with the browsers ? I tested on this website, but its results limited to 60 FPS. I am getting 60FPS+ in FF4 RC1 and same result with IE9, I wanna know the actual FPS.

Hardware Acceleration Stress Test.

 

[Don]

My vote goes for Opera. It is certainly ahead of other browsers.

 

[Vyom]

@Liverpool_fan: Yeah... I agree with my own personal experience.

Me: Which browser you use?
Friend: Internet Explorer! (for like my whole damn life!, of about 4 yrs)
Me: Ahh.. it's The worst browser, and too much security loopholes, and its featureless!
Friend: So what do you use, that you are so proud of?
Me: *with a shine in my eyes* I use Firefox, and currently Google Chrome! btw, which version of IE do you use?
Friend: Version? Umm... the one which had came with XP!
Me: Come on dude.. its time to switch to the latest! Like Chrome, its fast!
You know btw, that IE's latest version has been launched. Its IE 9!
Friend: Oh oh!.. I am gonna install it right away..

Few hrs later, my phone rings...

Friend: You know, what? IE Sucks! Doesn't install.
Me: Umm.. I kinda forgot to tell, that IE 9, works only in Vista or Win 7! Which I have
Friend: YOU SUCK!

Firefox is a very good browser.... but it has memory leak problems....I think chrome is very fast.
