Detecting the version of an installed application in the launcher (at least in Windows) shouldn't be a problem. It will most likely be registered in the registry next to the .exe path we are checking already for the individual browsers. We can also check the version info of .exes as an alternative (most Windows applications are compiled with various static info like version and author). The Windows launcher is already running Chrome with a command line argument making it start in privacy mode btw. I'm not entirely sure how the launch part is handled best on Linux (I'll leave that to you Linux guys). - Zero3 _______________________________________________ Devl mailing list Devl@freenetproject.org http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devl
