@ guenter / JamesD I didn't realize that 32 bit OS's could be run on a 64 bit machine :O, good to know. I saved the HDD and it's contents from the xp machine.

Preferences/Page Content/Images/Disallow scripts to change images (Disable roll-over effects) defaults to true every time km is closed. How can I stop this from happening? I am using KM 1.6.2 Beta on a Windows 8 64 bit machine. Thank you.

Charlie You did not say which 1.6 that you were using. I do not have chrome, firefox, or Win8 but my beta 2.5 of KM 1.6.0 is very stable on Win7 (32 bit). https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1522294/K-Meleon1.6.0_Beta2dot5_en-US.7z Most macros will run with 1.6 versions. If you have a specific one that you are not sure about, just ask here. Thanks, JamesD I'm using K-Meleon1.6.

Thanks, duffy98 I probably haven't tried any of the most recent versions of FF but I've gotten to the point that I tend to shy away from FF except when using someone else's machine that happens to have FF on it. I'm kind of the same way about Google Chrome even though it seems to get some rave reviews.

Anyone out there familiar with Classic Shell 3.6.6? I have it installed on Windows 8 w/IE10. There doesn't seem to be a way to access the Safe Mode. Anyone know of a workaround other than uninstalling Classic Shell 3.6.6?

Caktus, are you letting a tab load before loading another? Could that lead to a resource problem - i.e. memory?

Revised version for Twin. Line 25 is changed.......... I tried this in K-Meleon Twin+'s K-Meleon-1.7\macros folder and it locked me into the 1.7 browser with no way to open the 1.6 browser except to remove this macro. I am using XP Home, could this be the problem? Thank you.

I have a note of change for using KM17n.kmm with Twin. I found there is a difference in the folder name for KM 1.7 in my test system and the actual name in Twin. In order to use KM17n.kmm with twin you need to change the relative path. From: .\\K-Meleon 1.7 To: .\\K-Meleon-1.7 As usual, I am confused (no big surprise).
