Hmm i use Google Chrome instead :>

[baza210]

But then you have no addons like AdBlock, etc. Also, this is smaller than Google Chrome ;)

[Unknownz00]

True true, but isnt FF3.5 bigger then Chrome? in terms of size ( storage ) don't know the exact value for memory ( RAM ) it eats though.

[baza210]

Yeah, that's true, Chrome is faster to startup etc.

This is pretty neat. And the point of it is not to emulate fullscreen; it's to make the top bars more compact. Realistically, very few people actually use F11 anyway. Baz, could you make an IE version of this tutorial too, please? :P

[baza210]

I'm not that familiar with Internet Explorer, but as PD said it's not as easy to customize anyway. Why not try Firefox?

[Unknownz00]

Hope that Google will come out with a new version of chrome so it comes with plug-ins like Firefox have. it would be awesome!
