Like the broken site feature, and I'm sure that sanatize feature will be useful ;) Well it seems to want to uninstall any MooX builds as well =/. At least the icon is the little world thing, instead of the generic windows one. Haven't noticed anmything else though. At least the cookies are retained	Edward (31)
361077	2005-06-03 22:56:00	Thanks Edward. The new features look good. For those too lazy to click on the link above, here they are: New Browser Features in Deer Park Alpha 1 General "Sanitize" privacy feature The "Sanitize" feature provides an easy way to quickly remove browsing history, cookies, cache, saved form information, and other personal data. The items to be removed can be customized, and the feature can be activated using either a keyboard shortcut or through a menu item. Image thumbnails as tab icons When viewing images, tab icons now display thumbnails of the displayed image. Fast back (and forward) This very experimental feature allows much faster session history navigation. The feature is off by default but can be enabled for testing purposes by setting the browser.sessionhistory.max_viewers preference to a nonzero number. Anonymous FTP login failure behavior FTP users are now prompted to input a name and password if anonymous access fails. CSS at-rule for matching on site/document URL The new @-moz-document rule gives users the ability to match page objects per-site, using CSS. This makes it possible to include site-specific rules in user style sheets (userContent.css). David Baron's post to www-style explains how the rule can be used. Report a broken website wizard Users now have a simple tool for reporting websites that aren't working in Firefox. If installed (Reporter is a custom install option for this release) the tool can be accessed from "Report Broken Website" on the Firefox Help menu. Improved Preferences Instant Apply behavior on Linux and Mac Changes made in the Preferences window now apply immediately, in line with typical behavior in other Mac OS X and GNOME applications. This changes conforms with the Apple and GNOME Human Interface Guidelines. Searchable download actions manager You are now able to search through Firefox's file associations for downloaded files by program name or their file extension. Searchable cookie manager Cookies can be searched by hostname/domain and cookie name, and are organized by hostname in a tree format instead of a flat list. Deployment Support for profile "temp" directory on local filesystem It is now possible to store the network cache (copies of visited webpages) and the XUL fastload cache (precompiled user interface code) on a local disk, while keeping the rest of the profile data on a network drive. This will increase performance and reduce network traffic for users in a network environment. Mac OS X Support Accessibility Supports "Full Keyboard Access" system setting. Drag and drop Users can now drag more file types to the Dock icon to open in the browser. Menus Menus function properly in windows without special menus and with no windows open. Mouse Actions Middle mouse buttons now function as expected. Keyboard shortcuts Cmd+Return and Cmd+Shift+Return are now supported for address completion as on other platforms. Back, Forward, Stop and Help keyboard shortcuts are now exposed.	Strommer (42)

Perhaps you'll find any bugs, and see if it does any damage to your own set up? :badpc: It would be unwise to put it on your main machine, but try it on your play machine by all means! :D	personthingy (1670)
