    I sometimes wish it would do that to me. I must have a hundred or so scattered around a dozen windows at the moment

    I've found K-Meleon by far the best. It's fast and lean. Uses much less memory and cpu than others, so great for older/lower spec PCs. It's configurable in an intuitive way, and it's easy to import bookmarks from other browsers.

    I'm currently using the latest stable release with the Gecko engine.
    K-Meleon 75.1 (2015-09-19)
    K-Meleon

    What's your choice of browser?
    Chrome for me always. First choice.

    Charlotte and Lynx. Probably the safest browsers around

    Fecking Google dictatorship.

    They recently started displaying a really crappy search interface to anyone using an old browser to "encourage" people to upgrade. I got around this, with my old version of Opera, by setting the user agent string to spoof as a recent version of Firefox.

    K-Meleon uses the following spoofed user agent string because stupid sites like Google won't accept more obscure browsers like K-Meleon.

    Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:31.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/31.0 K-Meleon/75.1

    I also have used Firefox for years, and prefer it to Chrome.
