<soapbox> Is it just my imagination or is each new version of galeon providing less and less functionality? Before long the user won't have any preferences to set. I use to have the ability to close the browser with multiple tabs and when I reopened the browser there were all of the sites I had open the last time. Also when I clicked on a link in evolution it would open it in a new tab in galeon, now it opens a new instance of galeon. Or the settings someplace else now? Galeon is a great browser and faster than any others I have tried but give us back some of the options we used to have. </soapbox> -- Ken Schneider unix user since 1989 linux user since 1994 SuSE user since 1998 (5.2)

Time to upgrade to your version James (keep up the great work). The version as shipped with 9.0 is 1.3.7 and is missing A LOT of the normal user functions. -- Ken Schneider unix user since 1989 linux user since 1994 SuSE user since 1998 (5.2)

Let's see, are you a gnome user ? OR , IF you do use KDE you could try firebird... it's pretty fast, even the latest Mozilla's are pretty fast these days... but It seems to me most of Gnome is going downhill. I used to love Galeon, tho it was the only Gnome app I loaded.. But then it got all weierded out if I wanted to UG Moz , and pretty soon just got to be more problematical than it was useful. W/o The Vermillion Chapauex ( sp? French isn't one of my better languages. And I'm trying not to mention the name , just make allusions that folks might figure out... ) Anyway, w/o that company I fear it will go away
