did You check whether k-m was prone to that bug?*/
djenkuje for info anyway.

AFAIK tests are made with the 1.8 branch - and there is only Ulf that codes c.

*/ k-m did not have all vulnerabilities that ff 1.0 had - but do ask me why.

hi Darek, thx 4 correcting: Dziekuje - danke.
Did it look too strange? - if spelled with German pronounciation of letters?

there is a post about these things in other part of forum:
http://kmeleonbrowser.org/forum/read.php?f=3&i=7012&t=7012
in case You did not see it yet.

- k-m people (probably) do not have the manpower to update often.
if done with very few people an update of browser means that some normal private work is left behind/not done.

Greetings, Guenter. Crocuses and daffodils are blooming, and the cherry trees are covered in pink blossoms. It is still cold, about +10 C, but we feel spring "in the air", as we say. Our rainy, gray days of winter are behind us, and between now and May, Vancouver will become more and more beautiful. I love this time of year! Best regards to you from (near) the Pacific coast of Canada. :-)

The status bar as well as the address bar of the new site show
http://www.payp?l.com, so K-Meleon seems not to be vulnerable,
because the user can see the obvious error.
The "firescrolling" bug seems not to work with this mentioned
chrome because such as chrome does not exist in K.Meleon,
which has a different browser structure and is not cross platform
compatible (Windows only).
Also the tab bug is not working, K-Meleon has layers, not tabs.
For the bug, when you drag and drop a picture to the desktop, or
any other file, it is common sense to see it's danger, as a .gif or
any other ending does not make sure, what type of file it is.
You simply should never do that.
So up to now everything is still rather safe.

hi Darek,
thx for url,

if You mean the spoffing test?
http://www.payp?l.com/ = with haos 0.9

that is how it looks with 0.8.2+
http://www.paypаl.com/

that is how it looks with 0.7.1
http://www.paypаl.com/
in chrome chrome error page = url not found

the drag thing is only if Your system is set not to show mime types.
else You see that it is a executable file type.
the was a post here in forum when they had just found these bugs.

wet - means that it is thawing?
here snow falls - next day snow is gone
- then snowing again, at the moment we have almost no snow
- looks like it will be spring soon.
greetings from Hannover

@Carson & Guenter:

And the big arctic snows of Maine divide between Puget Sound and Hannover. -sigh- In the one place you have the cherry blossoms, in the other, snow only stays a short time and spring is quickly coming. And me? 40 to 50cm of snow still on the ground, very, cold (some nights -17°c or more... but other days Carson's +10°c, wild swings!) and much more snow on the way, as the winds blow down from the polar cap, across the Canadian Tundra and Hudson Bay to me...

2½ more months at least until I see spring... -moan-

Tristement,

@Eyes-Only - glad to see that You have some time for Yourself,
at least one friend that envies me.
- Maine does not sound like my personal idea of Acadia ; o )
we had some snow again but only a nutshell full - maybe 3 cm - and i am sorry to hear about Your weather conditions.

p. s. we just had a look into Ur Reading.zip = sweet!

Eyes-Only,

When I was just a boy, we lived in Michigan. For two short years, my father took a sabbatical from his job and taught at Michigan Tech in Houghton. We lived in Copper Harbor in the Keweenaw. So I know cold and I gotta say, living now in NJ just outside NYC, I like this better. I could even go for something really warm one of these days!
