  1. Review - Safari for Windows

    5.0.4 (Mar 10, 2011)

    Safari 5.0.4 running on Windows 7 64-bit (and other Windows OS's?) still does not does not allow a person to paste an URL into the address field and go to (load) that new URL: neither is there is a "Go (to)" button, and the Reload page button just reloads the current page it is already on, and pressing the Enter key also just reloads the current page it is already on.

    The above has kept me away from using Safari on Windows.

  4. Review - AdBlock Configurator For Opera

    1.3.0 (Nov 28, 2010)

    Very good utility. Also works well with the Opera 11 Beta. A Plus.

  5. Review - Safari for Windows

    5.0.3 (Nov 19, 2010)

    I am running Windows 7 64-bit. Safari running on this OS does not seem to allow a user to paste an URL into the address field and go to (load) that new URL: there is no "go" button, the reload page button just reloads the current page it is already on, and pressing the Enter key also just reloads the current page it is already on?
    I know that by pressing the Space bar and then pressing the Enter key will take you to the new website. But what I am looking for is something akin to the "paste and go" extension (as used in Opera, Chrome and Firefox 4 beta) - does anyone know of such an available extension? (There is none listed in the Safari Extension Gallery.)
    Thanks.

  6. Comment - Opera Next clears clutter from the browser UI

    You say "Google knows what's best for the vast majority of people. . . " - you're kidding right?

    For Sven123456789,

    Just in case you did not know about this extension, Menu Editor - it will do what you want:
