2. I could have sworn I already had 1.0.7 but I guess not

I only have 1.0.6, well time to update,

Thanks

BTW, have you ever been to browserwars.com? I thinks that's the name, but it's like a giant game of "Connect 5" (or 4, I think it depends on the size of the board). You click on a square and depending on which browser you use, that's the icon that appears.

7. Perhaps for those of us who are thinking of switching and would like

to know that a new version is out. I used Firefox at one time, and now I think it's time to use it again.

10. Opera is now free

It's faster and more secure than firefox.
