Nice. But that has nothing to do with what I was talking about.
Windows is, well, Windows. And X windows is Unix.

Neither have anything to do with browsing per se.

And ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with rec.radio.amateur.antenna

Then delete or plonk.

In Windows I use Firefox with the QuickJava extension. It puts on/off
buttons at the bottom of the browser window that make turning on and off
browser functions (flash, java, javascript, ect) quick and easy. When
exploring I only leave text and images active. If I find a site I want
to chance that needs flash or script I just turn it on and refresh. It's
not foolproof of course but a different approach. And if I'm just
reading text sites (newspaper, forums ect) I leave everything off but
text and images and most of the flashy moving annoying ads which I hate
are disabled which also improves the page loading time a bunch.

That sounds like a lot of work. I try not to take the wed too seriously.
Like everything, it's 95% BS.
