Just re installed 1.1.18 and all the problems I had with SM2.0

I used Netscape 4.08 until a year ago, then went
to SM 1117. I am still with 1117.
I should be good now until about the year 2014.

Congratulations!



I probably just need to realize there are people who give a sh*t
about using secure software. ;-)

What specifically are the security features of 2.0 and/or 2.01? I am
willing to try almost anything but, there neds to be a good reason to
do so.

Security features I not only like, but also recommend to enterprise
customers include:

1) being to directly manually manage cookies,

2) having a Password Manager that uses (or at least used to user
selectively employ...) strong 128 bit encryption when storing Passwords,

3) being able to directly and manually manage Certificates,

4) the fact that the previous Mozilla/Netscape architecture for
handling Certificate is a gov recognized standard,

5) Junk Mail filtering,

6) flexibility/detail provided for user setting of Filters,

7) the previous ability to set rules for script handling for both
Browser and News (which REALLY need to be re-implemented...),

8) ability to blocking entire sites or portions of sites,

9) notifications/alerts for secure vs non-secure sites,

10) no Active-X attack worries...

...crap, that ought to be way more than enough reasons when compared
to something like IE. But there are more...one of which is that it's
all FREE.

thanks--it has to run properly and I have not seen that in SM2.0

It's doing pretty well on my Macs...I've only just started with 2.0.1, but that's gone smoothly so far as well - I think the biggest major difference is that the Mac install is just drag and drop to replace the previous app...that's gotta help the sitch.

That said, there are still some interface issues that make a bit of my notes above unclear when it comes to making a recommendation with/for SM 2.0. These interface issues are clearly a step in reverse, IMO.
