I don't know how that little detail escaped me. I had it to redraw after 1 second though, so it did't make that huge of a difference. But all tweaks are welcome. Smile

Yes 1 sec is the default, but 1 sec is too slow for me, its an unnecessary delay, my connection is pretty darn fast.

Either way Firefox's adblock and customize google are far too cool to live without.. heh

You know there are adblocks for Opera too though, right?
Oh man, if you guys are going to get into Opera I know you're going to like this page, http://nontroppo.org/wiki/Opera

I know this'll strike both of your fancies, http://nontroppo.org/wiki/BlockAdvertisements
Hint: OperaAdBlock
I personally use LuaAdblock

wow that is nothing in comparison to Firefox's adblock.. pfft. dont even try comparing the two.

EDIT: woah, just tried Camino.. really cool! the latest alpha release 0.9a1 is awesome... its fast.. i think its cuz every image is quartz rendered now.. haha.. very cool!! they also re-wrote the entire tab browsing feature.. all those annoying bugs have disappeared. sweet!

They do the exact same thing. Just that the install is a bit more hands on.

what are you refereing to? Camino or the adblock thing.

The blocking of the Ad, yes?

rizzix · **Posted:** Sun Jun 26, 2005 7:31 pm

oh, ok then, does it block iframes and flash ads?

Notoroge · **Posted:** Sun Jun 26, 2005 8:02 pm

Maybe, haven't tried. I only block really obtrusive ads, haven't come accross any yet, but when I do, I'll make sure to tell ya. IMO, blocking all ads you see is good exercise in being a freeloading-leech. If a site that you frequent depends on ads for their survival, you'd might as well leave them where they are.

Big flash ads though, block those instantly.

yes a lot of sites i visit are usually news site.. and their ads are plain annoying.. mostly iframes and flash ads.

Opera's good. My problem: so is Firefox, and Firefox's free.

And firefox has extensions... which... is the best part.
+ I like firefoxs bookmarks
