    Thanks, i like firefox, have been using it for ages, restarting it fixed it, must have been some weird glitch. Not in a market for new browser just yet though as long as this one is superior. Ad-block capability is probably number 1 requirement though and no hidden data theft.

      Yeah. I am probably posting this in the wrong community, but I use Cromite over Firefox because its adblocker is native (hence much faster than FF, especially on Android), and it’s more “hardened” for security/privacy in a multitude of ways, like anti-fingerprinting spoofing/tricks, an internal firewall, strict default policies, things like that.

      There are variants of FF that lean in that direction as well, though I am less familiar with them.
