@zgp152, ttuuxxx, I have noticed this also Firepup was opening new windows when I expected it should be opening new tabs. I guess maybe the default 1.5 behavior was different than 3.0. The settings in the screenshot seem to give behavior equivalent to Firefox 3.0.3--I am not sure they are exact (since they seem like what you said zgp152), but they are opening tabs for links in these forums.

Yeah, playdayz, you seem to be right. Maybe I had a "backflash". The new settings work quite well, I just did not remember to verify it before writing. Oops.
Only in one case I managed to create one more session. As Noscript blocked a link, pointing at the peculiar snake icon with mouse and right-clicking it, a new window was created as well as an entry at the botton bar. In other cases, a new tab was created or content of the current tab was refreshed.

I have been using firepup on a geode gx2 128mb machine (full install with swap partition) and firepup runs great I was even able to view youtube videos pretty well (flash only gets ~ 1 frame per second) using a trick from this forum link:
play youtube videos with player
This is ideal for computers with low resources and a perfect companion for firepup - does anyone know how to grok plugger or make firefox extensions/plugins that would do something like this

technosaurous,
Great to know that the Geode is holding up well with flash on Firepup. This was a major problem for me and the Dectop, flash just did not run.
Great job techno and great job ttuuxx. This browser has gone straight into my puplet.
thanks,
n4l

Hi Ttuuxxx,
Nice job on this slimmed down FF, quick, and slick. Only negative quirks would be the non-abilty to add wellminded puppy search and others to the search bar. Other than that I think I would use it.

Thanks Disciple, I already found how to do it on google, Its a bit smaller of code, I made 5 new plugins for FirePup.
to answer your Question, well this version has security updates, Its way faster than any 2 or 3 Series, and more stable, Youtube videos work fullscreen, plus other enhancements, like a direct link to #puppylinux chat on the Personal Bookmarks, It has a Spell Checker, Plus links to software, Forum, Custom themes, and a heck of a lot of updates/fixes. etc, plus I can convert it to other Languages etc.
Plus a few other things.
ttuuxxx
Ps I have a newer version to upload, But having a bit of server problems, Once thats fixed, I'll upload it, With the new plugins and theme.

Haha. Nice going Ttuuxxx. Thanks much!
I don't mind using it now, but my sister doesn't quite feel the same about it. Not sure exactly why, but maybe I'll quiz her and give you some feedback

It's a good thing I already downloaded FirePup awile back. It's really working
great,..I might add.
Guess we'll have to wait 'til Dec. 1st for the mirrors to be back up, huh?

Try
this link for version 4.2
Ttuuxxx--if you PM me the 4.3 file i can put it up on our server as well -- maybe this will relieve some of the congestion.
