You are right Robert.

Historically Netscape & Firefox have been very good at serving us and there is a fun site bugzilla for bug reporting, but think I can wait and obviously other folks are pushing it much harder than I am.

Thank you Duncan. Preferences (not tools on mac) set correctly. No difference after restart, progs built on OSX shouldn't need one anyway. There is something in discussions about preventing one starting dodgy programs without prior virus cleaning, but again you can't install a new prog on a mac without master-password consent, so not too relevent. The whole idea is to have recent downloads, at least half being .pdf files, easily accessible just in case one did not file them neatly/rename them recognisably before saving.

Know not to close the LH tab already, I learn!
