First there's the need to provide your master password when you start

could something like that slip through the development process? Do the
developers not use master passwords?

If it only asks once, what'S your problem?
Is it possible that you have fetching mails on start without opening
MailNews enabled in the preferences and it needs your Master-PW for that?

Because there are times when I do not want my passwords etc. to be
automatically dished up by the browser. In other words, I want it to
work like SM 1 did, which is to ask when the master password is first
required (as the option states).

If you fetch mail in start, wouldn't it be required then?
It's possible that you have to disable that functionality in the preferences to get rid of an initial asking for the Master-PW.


If I have to run the browser with the
master password permanently permanently provided, then there's not a
whole lot of point having a master password at all.


Oh there is, it encrypts your passwords on the disk ;-)


Second it is just mind-numbingly slow. It takes for ever to resolve site
addresses and forever to download web pages. It often just times out. SM
1.1.18 has no problems at all, on the exact same system (neither does
Opera).

I've never heared that before about SM2 compared to SM1, I would
recommend testing with another profile or in safe-mode.


Nice to hear you tried...


Flashblock will not install. It just gets itself into an install loop:
every time you start SM 2.0.1, Flashblock tries to install again.

Flashblock works like a charm in SM2, that's another reason I think
your SM2-installation and/or profile is not ok.

Well, it got itself into this state all by itself, and didn't work right
from the very moment it was installed.


Looks like you're not even willing to find a solution, but just complaining about the current state, this won't get you any further, sry. When flashblock works fine for all others you should consider your setup being "corrupted" somehow. This might even be your file-system and not SM itself.


The new download progress dialog's ridiculous small buttons are another
issue, but this has been beaten to death (and I wish this new design had
been).

As you already read about it, feel free to create an improved version ;)

Ah yes, that childish response. The answer to all criticism of any open
source project.

Well I hear a bit too often, too. But there's some truth in it. I would prefer a different functionality too but I don't have the time/knoweledge (yet?) to change it myself. I'm using the download statusbar extension for now.
