Hello, dear Internet community!

There's one thing on Firefox, which irks me a long time, and not just since yesterday, but a very long time. Back when I had Windows XP on the computer, there was the little problems already. And the stupid thing about it: I simply find no solution. And a description of the problem I do not think, because the defect is expressed in the fact that comic characters are displayed on websites that should not be there. Preliminary times a pic of an example:

That's part of the site einfachjabber.de that would be shown as follows in fact:

Of course, I already gegooglt a bit and then I come out that Firefox is a written incorrectly substituted . The solutions are offered in the forums (ie the font Helvetica delete) does not work for me, because I have not installed any Helvetica font. So I can not delete.

The comic about the whole thing is being shown for example in the Iron-browser, go correctly. Otherwise I would have not been able to make the screenshot. Only in Firefox (and Firefox Portable), some Web pages are displayed incorrectly.

Then slowly I despair, I'm looking now at my blog help. Do you have any solution at hand for me?

The responsible designer of Firefox 4.0, Stephen Horlander, is already working hard on the new surface to version 4 of the fox river and get to look like this:

As you can see from the screenshot, the tab bar is moved upward and then placed underneath the Address bar. This is the first sense, logically, after all, each tab a different address. In addition, now receives the App button collection, which displaces the "File" bar. So now all the features of Firefox on the new buttons are accessible. One or two others like this kind of organization to be known. Thus one finds in the new Microsoft Office also has a phone button. This looks like the end is still uncertain.

If you would like the new theme today already have can be solved. Thus, among other things, the plugin Strata40 available, what are the fox is already the new splendor.
Everything you need to do is download the plugin and restart your Firefox. Then you see your Firefox like this:

Clearly, the design does not exactly approach the new theme of Firefox 4.0. But we must not forget that the current draft also still developing in the development. In addition, such things as the app buttons are also very difficult to implement via plugins. For the transition period until the release of the Fox 4.0 but still great

Have you heard this? Like a press release announced, can the project OpenPandora the open source Pandora handheld is almost completed and the unit will soon be ready for sale. The unit is equipped with a 4.3 inch touchscreen has a 600 Mhz ARM processor and has Wi-Fi on board. The battery life is approximately 10 hours, and a 43-key keyboard, also. The device is a bit bigger than a Nintendo DS fits, but still in a trouser pocket. But all these facts are not even that interesting, even though that sounds. After all, the device has a processor twice as fast as a PSP, is about as fast as the new iPhone 3G . Actually a little bit faster. But here's the best.

Do you know these things when you are thinking "Yeah, well, then everything is all settled. Everyone is happy. "And then afterwards we go again? Or so it was made at the time in the browser discussion. Who can not remember: the browser maker Opera, Mozilla and Google had complained to the EU Commission that the monopoly position of Microsoft in the browser market, affecting badly. So many use by default the Internet Explorer because of the other browsers know nothing and do not come into contact with alternative browsers. Ergo Mozilla, Opera and Google were evil.

Since then, Microsoft has bowed to the wishes and demands of the EU has done a consequence, it was thought that the topic would be off the table. A small selection of browsers after the installation of Windows should anschaukeln the competition again and creating a fair market. The user can now choose yes, what browser they wish to use. One might think that the discussion would (finally) over.

But now it hails new criticism. The whole time before I leave here blah outside and come directly to the new demands of the alternatives.

• Mozilla (Firefox) wants to rearrange the menus of the browser every time you open new arbitrary.
• Opera wants the browser selection is displayed in a neutral menu (without Microsoft logos). Moreover, the users are regularly consulted, whether he is still happy with the browser.

OK, about the design of the menu and the arrangement of the browser in the selection can discuss it. So far the browser has been listed in alphabetical order. Sun Mozilla lands on the rear seats. Thus, the criticism and of course an arbitrary arrangement makes sense. But the 2nd Proposal of Opera takes the biscuit, I suppose from the ground, right?

I should be asked every few weeks to see if I like the browser is. Whats wrong? If so, then I demand a "Yes, damn it stop now and ask!" Button. A browser is not everything on the system. This proposal of Opera is absolutely moronic. That the browser market was not fair, that's true. It is indeed with Netscape ended when Microsoft Internet Explorer by default with surrendering. But now the discussion goes too far. Those who already have no idea of ​​browsers and can not be bothered, have to deal with other alternatives, will go over the browser and click on Allterwertesten Browserwauswahl in just the first in the list. The main thing, you can surf. And those who are familiar with the subject will also be smart enough to select a different browser. Well, what if I will then be asked constantly if I'm still happy with my choice. Then enough!

Since the movie Signs - signs are called Crop Circles (German for: crop circles) come from time to time in the headlines. These are only specimens are cut into panels. Now, some have Mozilla -crazy doing the work to cut a Firefox pattern in a field. The result can be even from the air to admire Google Earth .

More crop circles, which can be seen with Google Earth, are here listed.
