Our Browse Freenet shortcut should really deal with this ... call firefox explicitly if it's installed, and create a suitably configured profile if there is one. As we've seen, Safari sucks for Freenet; so does Internet Explorer, for different reasons. Obviously users can use their own browsers if they want to, but there's a fundamental principle here: it must be really easy to do the right thing, or nobody will. How exactly do we create a new profile in firefox, import a bundle of config settings, and then start the browser with that profile, from a batch file / shell script? And can you have two Firefox windows open set to different config profiles simultaneously? > > NextGen$ -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
