Because curiosity gets the better of me I've gone back to using the hourly builds. I've gotten Omnibar, Adblock Plus , Downthemall! and Fastdial working fine, but I still desperately need a working version of Stylish. It seems people are using Stylish on 4.0b2pre, so.... what Stylish build are you guys using and where are you getting it?

I used the one linked here. Seems to work just fine. Link is toward the bottom of the page (V 0.5.9)

To remove that cross button , go to about:config and set

browser.tabs.closeButtons

to 1

i was talking about the other close button (see screenshot) that config setting seems to just apply to the close [x] thats on the tab.

also resetting the toolbar buttons to default didn't fix the 2 new tab button problem that i am having, any other ideas?

You have Tab Mix Plus installed? I think that is causing the problems (as it did for me)

Says not compatible when trying to install.

4.0b2 Compatible Stylish http://space.geociti...70201-Fx4.0.xpi

I think you meant Opera. I use the new chrome occasionally and I keep thinking "wow, this is almost identical to opera now"

This.

Opera has been the tech leader in browers for quite awhile now. I use it over everything now. I actually went so far as to remove FF from my system, and keep Opera as my main, and Chrome to toy with.

I love the feature in Chrome where you can type your searches into the address box. It would be nice if they added that into Firefox that way they would be able to get rid of the extra box.

Actually if you type something in firefox awesome bar and click enter, Firefox will google the words. The only difference is that there won't be search suggestion, even if there's an addon for this:

get rid of the Tab Mix Plus addon. It's not compatible with the FF 4.0b2 pre nightlies anyway.

Go to the Tab Mix Plus forum site and ask the creators to add FF 4.0b2pre compatiblity on their addon:

Looking at the MozillaWiki Releases page recently:

"Firefox 4.0 Beta 1" > Scheduled Release Date says "Early July"

    • Google are hyprocrites for signing this. They have been pulling the same dirty tactics as Microsoft, only they do it on Android and ChromeOS.
    • In some countries the law has forced Microsoft to display a menu on a fresh install of Windows which asks which web browser you want and it will install that browser. This doesn't add any bloat to Windows. It simply an additional step when setting up a new PC.
    • Chrome is also a first party browser on Android and ChromeOS. And on those systems, Google is pulling the same dirty tactics as Microsoft does on Windows.
    • Unofficial script lets you install unreleased Windows 11 features without Microsoft Account by Sayan Sen Microsoft has been steadily evolving the Windows Insider Program over the years, introducing new channels and testing paths that allow enthusiasts to experience upcoming and yet-to-be-released Windows features (some interesting hidden ones too) before they reach the public. However, one long-standing requirement has remained largely unchanged as users are generally expected to enroll in the Program and with a Microsoft account. That's where a third-party tool called "OfflineInsiderEnroll" can help. OfflineInsiderEnroll is said to be a lightweight script that enables access to Windows Insider Program builds on systems that are not signed in with a Microsoft account. Essentially the tool configures the necessary Insider settings locally and hence allows users to select and switch between available preview channels while continuing to receive builds through the normal Windows Update channel. If you are wondering how it manages to do so, it is made possible by a Registry value known as TestFlags. When configured to"0x20", Windows stops communicating with Microsoft's online Insider enrollment services thus preventing locally configured Insider settings from being overwritten. This allows the script to apply its own channel configuration directly through the Registry as Windows Update does not verify whether a device has been officially enrolled in the Insider Program or not. Previously the utility has had already supported the traditional Insider branches including Dev, Beta, and Release Preview. However following Microsoft’s recent restructuring of its preview channels, the script has now been updated. The latest OfflineInsiderEnroll version, 2.6.6, adds support for the newly introduced Insider channel lineup. As such, users can now choose from several Experimental channels in addition to Beta and Release Preview options. The update also retains tools for refreshing the Insider cache, resetting Insider settings, and completely stopping Insider enrollment when needed. Keep in mind though that will need elevated privileges when running the script (run as Admin). You can get the latest version of OfflineInsiderEnroll from this page on its official GitHub repo.
    • The "Classic" Outlook has done that for a few years as well. The option to even change that is really hidden away too... It really shouldn't be hard to respect user defaults. Sadly we are the product now, not Outlook. To change in the Classic Outlook: File > Options > Advanced > change "Open hyperlinks from Outlook in"
