    Squid.. switched over to Thunderbird this morning here at work. Imported everything from Outlook without a problem. I like it alot! I'm trying to decide if I want all my RSS feeds coming into it or continue to use SharpReader.

    It's got a newsreader built into it too (but you probably already know that.)

    It's a nice app.

    Opera includes pop-up blocking, tabbed browsing, mouse gestures, integrated searches, password manager, zooming, easy customization, detailed privacy and security options, integrated mail, news, chat and newsfeeds functionality, and much much more..


    It will work on a palm pilot or a dual opteron server. Its one heck of a browser if you like functionality. Highly configurable, very fast and quite secure. Might be worth a look if your finally learning that IE is crap. Opera has been around for years and in my experience has only become better and better.

    I won't use Opera because of the adware crap in their free version. Have they changed their business model, or do they still force banners on you?

    P.S. - Good to see you made it through the hurricane okay, Cruiser! The panhandle looks pretty screwed up, and I saw Panama City had some bad tornadoes.

    Tropical weather nightmare indeed. Escaped tornado's by taking off east after seeing about 8 of em on radar coming more northerly towards us. It was time to bail.

    There's too many free browsers out there for me to PAY for one. Firefox works for me for now. Opera bugged the heck out of me with the ads.

    Did your place make it through the storm all right?
