Opera 11 -- liking what I see //

A point of information. Firefox is licensed as free software (related to GNU GPL) albeit the trademark is copyright controlled, but still the code is available etc, for example it is used as Iceweasel in one incarnation. So, aside from the technical performance and convenience merits of (browsers) software there is at least another issue to consider, perhaps. the implication of the licence and its restrictions in using the software. I applaud good software and it is hard enough to find, so all the best to you when using it! However, some software end user licence agreements can be amazingly restrictive, and the longer term consequences of its success are not always obvious. Software libre, free software, has its own issues, and the good guys do not always win. The business models of software companies are sort of reflected in their licences. It is quite fun to read the GNU GPL, where you have a right to see, copy, change etc. the code, or get someone else, to, on your behalf.

As in FF I use the extensions sparingly / but working fine so far -- and no need for a restart/ takes immediate effect /

Firefox does it automatically though , although not all the time. Is the Opera feature better?
