Does the browser Opera suck?
tomos:
any chance of a bigger pic there mahesh :P
IE9 fared very well (and the others very poorly) in tests blocking malware.
Early this week, I received information about a study by NSS Labs, which clearly showed that Microsoft Internet Explorer 9 was significantly better at blocking malware than any other browser tested. In fact, their study showed that no other tested browser even came close to challenging IE9.

I wouldnt recommend moving to FF15 anyway for performance reasons (see thread here somewhere), maybe #16 will be better.

Ghostery on Opera triggers some annoying blocks and security that dont happen on other browsers. :(

Oooh, you get to be my favorite person on the planet for at least a week for posting that link! :-* :Thmbsup:

6) even if I enable the "Automatic Redirection", when I change website I sometimes get the message:
"Moved Permanently
The document has moved here"
A further useless click is required...
7) when I scroll a page, the text doesn't flow smoothly. It moves like a squeeze box or a worm: it shrinks and then it expands, it shrinks and then it expands etc...
8) in the search box of http://www.wordreference.com, to start the search I must press Enter twice, one Enter doesn't work (it may seem a trifle indeed, but considering that I use very often Wordreference, and adding together the points 1...7, such drawback becomes a further bother anyway)

I use WordReference all the time and never noticed this. I now see why: I use the search icon next to the box rather than hitting Enter. I don't have to hit the search icon more than once. However, you're right--if you hit Enter, you have to hit it twice, even if there's no confusion about which word you want to search on. In Firefox, you only have to hit Enter once.
