I've been a longtime enthusiast of Kmeleon and used it until the 1.9.2.28 GRE had run its course. When KM no longer could use Frirefox derived GRE I sadly switched to FF, bloat and all.
It surprises me a bit that development work is focused on the 1.9.1.x platform.
Wasn't that supposed to be a dead end? Is it vulnerable? Is it safe based in 'security through obscurity'? To a bug or exploit KM is undistinguishable from FF. It's got a 'mozilla heartbeat'.

It surprises me that work is still going on on a supposedly vulnerable platform: 1.9.1.x. Is B2dot4 safe for daily use? Is it just a development version leading to a more solid and reassuring future? Is it suitable for normal use without courting disaster?

I was hoping Dorian and others to have come up with a re-engineered K-meleon built on the more recent mozilla GRE and about a year ago things seemed to be moving in that direction. What happened? Can Mozilla, as it stands be used as a daily browser?

Should I use it within a sandbox such as sandboxie?  Will that provide me with the security I need? Right now I hit the stops at 1.7 and 1.9.2.28, (which runs great and is very stable, but supposedly vulnerable) and find it surprising that current development is based on 1.6 and 1-9.1.x. Why?

Thanks fellas! lets not let the critter die. Unfortunately I'm not a coder.[/quote]
