Sweet! I use the current "stable" version of the toolbar, but pop up blocking would be great too.

Doesn't it report back on your browsing habits ????

[Fat Tone]

Only if you want it to - that's totally optional and its impossible to choose the wrong option when installng.

Talking about browsers with built-in popup blocking, how come no-one's mentioned that Mozilla 1.4 is out? I might be mistaken since I had to compile it about five times before it would work properly (hint: don't compile with -O3, at least if you're using GCC 3.3), but it seems to start a couple of seconds faster than 1.3.1 and render pages quicker. Gurm might want to give it a try if he's reading this

Now of all the sayings in all the world, I want to know why that particular one came into Tony's head...

Mmmm...camel
