Yep, that seems to have fixed it. I just commented out all the iframe lines in the ad-blocker code, since NTFS uses iframe ads. Front page works perfectly now, yet some of the more annoying ads that aren't loaded in iframes on other sites continue to remain blocked.

Just noticed that. Why do the NTFS ads get unblocked when I uncomment only the iframe lines in the ad-blocker code then?

Oooh, new default firebird theme in OS X ..

 

[NetRyder]

*Drool*
/me waits for a Windows port

 

[X-Istence]

NetRyder: there wont be one, what they did is take out all their own widget code, and just develop it for Mac OS X, and use Mac's Widgets.

 

[NetRyder]

It's still possible to make a good replica out of the theme using images from the Mac version.

Something that Timan knocked up quickly (attached).. obviously it's a start and the skin can be ported (or ripped off ) but it wont be quite as good, I like the default firebird skin on XP anyway, fits in nicely, just looks out of place on a mac or linux, hence why this skin for osx has been made..

Yup, saw that screenie on Neowin yesterday. That's using the classic scheme. I'm sure it would look a lot better with something like KoL's Panther VS, since that skins the background of the Firebird toolbar as well.
*Still hopes for a nice port*

Until then, I'm using Lynchknot's Safari theme with plastic buttons.

I've been juggling between browsers alot recently (been through Opera, Mozilla, Mozilla Firebird, Avant, etc.) I finally went back to Mozilla Firebird today (using aebrahim's SSE2 optimized) and was just curious if you any of you could possibly help me?

I prefer Firebird over the Mozilla Suite, but one thing I can't seem to figure out is how to get grouped tabs in Firebird. I'm not sure if thats the proper name for it, but in the Mozilla suite you can bunch a group of tabs together so that they open with a single mouse click. In firebird you can put them all in a folder, and then you have to go through the dropdown menu and go to "Open in Tabs". It's just not as efficent, and doesn't look as clean though. So I'm trying to find out if theres a way to make Firebirds tab grouping work like that in the Mozilla suite. I thought that maybe TBE would have an option for this, but if it does I can't find it.

If anyone can help me out I'd greatly appreciate it

I thought the same when I first started to use firebird, but I actually grew to prefer the folder method, so never looked into there being a method similar to that the suite uses. will be interesting to see if anyone knows though

Forseti:

Try an extension called TabBrowser Extension. It's got all kinds of options for tabs.

Yeah, once again I'm in a mood to Mac-tify my Windows desktop.
It's looking pretty sweet right now, but I still have to perfect a few little things here and there before I post it.

Thats what I was referring to (TBE). I'm guessing it's in there somewhere, there's just so many options for it (some of them aren't very descriptive). I guess I'll just mess with it a bit more.

I've just Aqua'd my safari, looks sweet, not a huge fan of the brushed metal widgets. Not that we should discuss safari here with it being a KHTML browser

There's an option at the end called "TabGroups". Is that what you're looking for?

Can we talk about K-Meleon here?

Sure. After all, it's a Gecko-based browser anyway.
