Michael S.G.:
I have recently tried Firefox and like it. However, the multiple tabbed panes don't seem to work with Microsoft's shortcut bar, which I use all the time. If I click on a favorite in the shortcut bar while another Firefox window is showing, it brings up another Firefox page rather than a new tabbed window within the original page. So, if you use the shortcut bar, you cannot use the nice tabbed page feature of Firefox. The only way to use it that I can see is to right-click on the tab line and select New Tab. The help file has no instructions on how to use the tabbed feature. Correct? Also, when I click on a Favorite in the shortcut bar, an error message appears saying "Windows cannot find 'such and such file'. Make sure you typed the name correctly...". Yet it comes up anyway, so I have to close that error bar by clicking on the OK button. Minor inconveniences but PITAs nonetheless.

Subject: [amibroker] Off Topic - Very Nice Software
Im making the migrating........ And it feels good!
A large number of people are migrating away from clumsy/bloated microsoft
programs,
Here are some links for very high quality (Akin to AB quality IMHO)
software to
replace your existing microsoft suite of apps. Plus a few more handy utilities.
Office Suite : OpenOffice
For your MS office suite, Use www.openoffice.org The entire suite is a mere
65mb
download - And contiains everything MS office does - Plus MORE.
Word = Writer (Documents can also be saved as PDF files)
Excel = Calc
Powerpoint = Impress (Presentations can also be saved as FLASH
files)
Also, OpenOffice comes with:
Math Formula editor
HTML Editor
Draw Package
Master Doc
Seamless Database/Document integration
Loads & Saves MS office formats.
(Word's HTML editor doesn't count - You know why......)
DownloadManager : FDM
Those that use download managers like getright, gozilla etc. may want to
switch to http://www.freedownloadmanager.org/ It's truely one hell of a
great program.
(No catches - No Adware - No registration or sending your email or anything)
Webrowser : Firefox
For Secure and a much better Web Browsing Experience, Use
http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/
This is by far the best Browser available IMHO. (Lots of others agree too)
EMail : Thunderbird
Im yet to make the migration from my existing EMAIL package to
http://www.mozilla.org/products/thunderbird/
(I have been too busy exploring all the cool functions of OpenOffice!)
A close friend has reported that his Eudora migration of some 4000
messages
ported across to thunderbird. Thunderbirds are GO!
Hope this is helpfull for some.......
