I'm not letting it go. Damned be the internet and it's "You're browser is not supported" propaganda! Unless of course, there's some other browser out there that supports hotkeys like tab cycling wit the 1-2 keys, or forward-back with control+direction, or the ability to select anything in a web page just by pressing the Tab key a few times.

Thanks for the notification Doc.   I still like Opera and have uses for it.

Yes, I have become one of "those people" who have different uses for 3 browsers installed at once.   A guy's gotta have a hobby I guess. 

I'm so picky that no browser is truly The One for Me. But so far, I don't think any other browser can beat the ease with which I can block entire domains such as googlanalytics, twitter, and facebook in Opera.

You have to trust add-ins to get similar protection in Mozilla browsers, which is not ideal for me, and the 'private browsing' stuff in IE is horrible faux compromise designed to make folks who want real privacy on the web feel like they are always lurking in a porno store.

My biggest gripe is the font rendering. I do lots of reading for what I do here, plus Medicine, so that's critical for me.

Can you post some screen shots illustrating what vexes you? The only font problems I have reading online are because so many sites hate text and/or love tiny displays too much and I always have to ratchet the zoom up if I want to read without getting a headache.

Maybe it's a question of degree when it comes to aging eyes. Mine aren't quite 50 yet and I can still read a good hardback in my lap without help from manufactured lenses, but old small-font paperbacks can make reading feel like a workout for those tiny muscles around my eyes.

I really don't think this is a refractive problem.

This is borked browser rendering. No problem with other browsers. Started with 9.5 or 10.



That's bizarre. Nothing like that has happened to me with Opera. Sometimes when a tab is out of focus it will, in tile or cascade mode, it'll display display a part of the page I already scrolled past, mixed with the part I'm at, making the page a jumble of stuff, and I need to click the tab to remind it where it was, but nothing like that. 

Same image, same Opera:

Everything OK here with Opera - on XP SP3 as well as on W7; both 32bit - . I guess it could be an hardware and/or software configuration related issue.  

btw, one question Doc: about Comodo Dragon setting (maybe you are running it) what do you think about the option "Enable malware domain filtering (Comodo Secure DNS)" ? Did you checked it?

Pale moon (and most likely firefox since that's what pale moon is based on) let's you cycle through tabs with hotkeys Either control + the number of the corresponding tab for direct access rather then cycling through, or by control + page up/page down to cycle through, and as an added bonus, pressing control+tab brings up your browser tabs in a window like your programs pop up when you press alt+tab.  In there you can select a tab or all of them and search all of them at the same time for something...

Also does this with Alternate + arrow keys

Not really sure what you mean by this, but any selectable button, box, drop down, whatever can be cycled through via the tab key, the reverse is shift +tab.  Shift+Arrow keys let's you highlight text, so when you tab to an area you can start selecting it...

So, pending my lack of understanding for that last thing, the others are definitely covered.  Don't be afraid to try something new.

Hmm, you've made a convincing argument in favor of Pale Moon, I'll give it a go, at least as a secondary browser, for the time being.

Use it all the time with Comodo Dragon (you can also choose to use it with all browsers). It's fine with me.

Slight 'pause' or hesitation, but security is fine.

Shows incomplete security certs here and JU. 

Well, the incomplete security certs are shown even if Comode Secure DNS are not enabled (it depends from other security features as well). What I wnat to know is: did you made ALL THE PROCEDURE to enable Comodo Secure DNS - typing Comodo DNS codes in the Internet connection settings (Network), apply, ok - or just checked the box in "Under The Hood" section?
