OK annoying thing with the latest nightlies (past week or so) is that c/p from formatted text into a RTE doesn't retain any of the formatting:

Any idea what's causing it, as it makes posting software news very frustrating!

I worked up until just over a week ago fine in Minefield.

i don't see what the problem is... the formatting looks the same.

It could potentially be an incompatibility within the editor itself (e.g. it's not detecting Fx4, thus sending Fx3.6 specific stuff).

It looks like that editor might be CKEditor - could check the forums at http://cksource.com/forums/

(I work with a heavily modified version of CK at work, and Fx4 is meaning we need to review some possible issues - we don't have yours though, likely because ours is so heavily modified).

Otherwise, I suggest a bugzilla check.

Opera 11 has introduced their version of tab candy:

Any thoughts?

I think tab candy is more powerful, but the way Opera does it definitely has its advantages. Maybe FF4 could do both. It's kind of a tab candy "lite."

I like Opera's version better because for my use, it's more practical and functional. I just never really understood the point of having to navigate to an entirely different page just to access a group of tabs you've made.

To each his own though. For power users, I'm sure Tab Candy will be better received.

For me, FFb7 is slow as hell compared to Chrome... At least at website rendering. Also, the damn greasemonkey add-on doesn't work on this. :(

Seems faster than Chrome to me. Greasemonkey works fine, you can try these nightly builds https://arantius.com/misc/gm-nightly/ or https://addons.mozil...x/addon/231203/

The Current one is really ugly and hard to use compared to that. With firefox the competition is really good, they might not be able to create the fastest but they can make the nicest and best one to customize.

People can tune firefox for speed but the development team should still be aiming for speed and reliability because the now it's sluggish and crashes from time to time. Hopefully they can get it up to speed, get it fully reliable and then we can see some decent theme's coming out for it and some custom versions like palemoon.

Panorama ("Tab Candy") is more powerful and flexible. Tab stacking is simpler and possibly slightly easier to use.

I think opera's tab stacking is significantly easier to use with < 20-30 tabs. Ideally there'd be a combination of the two where you can stack tabs on the tab bar like opera and also have a separate window for advanced management like tab candy.

I do think opera's method can be significantly better than tab candy all around if some automation is implemented like automatic stacking by domain, automatic stacking of links opened from a certain tab (ie does this with color grouping) and automatic stacking when the tab bar has > X number of tabs.

I think it reminds me a lot of that Firefox add-on tree style tabs, with some more polish.

On a separate note, I think I would rather see more work done in pinning things to the taskbar like IE9.

Definitely. Opera 11 is coming along nicely! The Final version I bet will be out before Internet Explorer 9 or Firefox 4 Final. :laugh:

Anyone else get a strange kind of phantom tab, it closes but leaves a little grey line next to the nearest tab and is technically still open.

You can move it around, create its own window etc, but you can't close it without closing the window it is on, strange issue.

There's all sorts of tab issues. Sometimes there's a tab stuck in Panorama that doesn't show up anywhere else, or other times, a tab will just be stuck on the tab bar, and refuse to close.

    • If its the devs fault you would think Unreal would help M$ take full advantage of Unreal and work with them to fix the performance issues. Otherwise they are catching unwarranted bad press.
    • Thanks for the advice guys, I'll give my current GPU a clean and then run the benchmarks to see how similar it is. Hopefully a bit of a clean-out will help it last a bit longer.
    • Pretty sure those will still be in this game. The series' well-explored psychosis themes will return as well.

    • Microsoft making much needed change to Windows 11, 10 Patch Tuesday security updates by Sayan Sen Recently, Microsoft delivered its latest Defender patches for Windows 11 ISOs. These definitions are released from time to time alongside the general security updates available during Patch Tuesday. Speaking of Defender, the company has now announced another important change that affects how security updates are delivered to enterprise devices running Windows. According to a recent announcement, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint's endpoint detection and response (EDR) updates will no longer be bundled with the monthly Windows security updates or Patch Tuesdays. Instead the company is shifting delivery of these updates to Microsoft Update, bringing EDR servicing in line with several other Microsoft Defender components. If you recall, Microsoft last year moved PowerShell updates to Microsoft Update (MU) as well since it provides automatic updates for Microsoft products and services. Thus the move is intended to allow Microsoft to deliver EDR improvements and security enhancements independently of the OS's regular monthly update cycle; this should enable faster deployment of protection updates without requiring organizations to wait for the next Patch release. For those unfamiliar, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint's EDR capabilities are designed to help organizations detect, investigate, and respond to advanced threats across managed devices. Keeping these components updated is critical for maintaining protection against evolving attack techniques. The rollout has already began for Windows 10 devices in late May 2026 (last month) and Microsoft says it will gradually expand support to Windows 11 and the remaining supported Windows versions over the coming months. The company expects deployment across Windows 10 and Windows 11 to be completed by fall 2026 or around Q3 of this year. Once the transition is complete, EDR updates will be delivered through Microsoft Update using KB5005292, provided the required prerequisite updates have already been installed. Microsoft is also introducing a new Defender Update Service as part of the change. Following installation of the first update, devices will automatically create a new directory located at %ProgramData%\Microsoft\Microsoft Defender\Defender Update. Microsoft notes that restarts may occasionally be necessary in case of "rare" failure scenarios. For most organizations, the tech giant says no action will be required as long as Microsoft Update is already permitted within their update management strategy. Admins who rely on manually deployed update packages, however, will need to adjust their processes to ensure the new Defender update package is included. Microsoft also recommends reviewing internal documentation and notifying helpdesk and security operations teams about the updated delivery mechanism to avoid confusion during the transition. As a prerequisite, the tech giant notes that systems must be running Sense version 10.8798.25857.1000 or later and have one of the following Windows updates (or later) installed: Win11 24H2 KB5062660 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win11 23H2 KB5062663 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win11 22H2 KB5062663 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win10 22H2 KB5062649 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win10 1809 KB5063877 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2019 KB5063877 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2022 KB5063880 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2025 KB5063878 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) As always, organizations should verify that their update policies align with the new servicing approach before the broader rollout reaches all supported Windows platforms later this year. In case of major problems, the EDR update can be rolled back to the inbox version stored in %ProgramFiles%\\Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) using: MpCmdRun.exe -RevertMde -Product Edr -ToVersion Inbox For those who have access to the Microsoft 365 Admin Center portal, you can view the message here under ID MC1381119.
