It’s not hard, mostly it’s that things are placed differently than in the other browsers. I like the ‘Panel’ that aligns along the left side and has icons for bookmarks, contacts, notes, transfers (downloads), history, etc. Clicking on an icon will open that vertical panel. Clicking it again closes it, allowing for a more open window. Also, tabs can be tiled or cascaded nicely.

The only problem I have so far is the ‘Rewind’ icon on the main toolbar. Instead of going to the initial window for that tab (for example ‘Home’), it goes to the base page of the most recent website visited. You have to keep keying it to get back to square one.

Along with that same issue, I’ve noticed that when I open my Comcast mail in the same tab as my home page (Comcast), I can’t return to my home page using the ‘Rewind’ or ‘Back’ icons. I’ve gotten around that by opening my Comcast mail in a separate tab, then closing it out when finished.

It seems that as much as a browser may have going for it, there’s always something to complain about...

Sounds interesting.

True, true.

Especially on Mircoslop foundations.

Instead of clicking on the arrow try holding it down. That will give you a drop down list of the websites you've visited. You can scroll down to the page you want and it will open. I don't know if that will work with Comcast mail.
