Hi Carson,

Great! I got it installed, both the 0.9b3 and my Wechselbalg Build. I think I reported in the other thread how Wechselbalg installed? 0.9b3 did the same. However, because of them doing such---so far---they see each other as totally independent KM Builds and neither is interferring with the other, nor are they needing the profile manager such as is the case with Firefox/Mozilla Suite. I found that quite interesting. And yes, I made it a definite point to check my two pref.js just to make sure they weren't being overwritten or plugins feeding off one another, etc., and such is not the case as it was before. Bravo! So thanks for your help!

@rmn: I have no idea what the bug is that lbmixpro is speaking of, unfortunately. :( But if I do remember right, it was either you, or ra who wanted me to test the 0.9b builds, since I run Windows 98SE, to see if the GDI Cache bug (I think Bugzilla #315?) had been fixed in 0.9b3?

Well, here's my report: I went to NASA, where I usually go and can crash KM normally in about 5 minutes or less. I was able to surf for 30 minutes and download photos up to 2megs in size. I was [b]very impressed[/b] to say the least! :)

There was, towards the end of my 30 minute testing period, when I downloaded an image of 2megs and I started getting lines, just like before. However: When I hit "reload" the image snapped-to instantly. In KMs of the past this did NOT work. At NO time did the browser slow down, bog down, or give the impression that it was going to crash.

Now I'd [i]hate[/i] to say, "Close the bug." on just MY 30 minute testing. Yet in my testing keep in mind that I'm on a t2 network line---wide-open to the net, and my settings on the browser are to take info wide-open and just as fast as possible, and I really put this through some moves as far as images go. Even the Suite will give me lines in images now and then---and that's the patched version. So more than likely with 0.9 and the regular to high user #315 shouldn't bother them on 95/98SE with cable or standard DSL connections.

My "big test" would be on a day (usually a Friday which I have completely to myself) when I can spend unhindered at the computer for 14 hours---4 or 5 of those hours in [i]intense[/i] image research at NASA. That kills about every browser. The Suite doesn't crash but she does get the occasional lines and she groans, "Have a heart man!" LOL!

Hope this helped?

Amicalement,
