IE's not all that bad, can font-stretch and you can strip the navigator all the way down so it can't be reused. Pretty handy for HTML intranet applications, Internet prefer Chrome.

I can't run Flash on FireFox 16, this is sad. Problem is I have FireFox setup exactly how I want it, why I don't switch. IE10 is promising. | | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop

I've got a Linksys E3000. My firmware is currently updated to the latest version so I can't test this the update side.
Thanks for the info. I'm using a D-link DIR-655 which is a standard Ethernet/wireless n router with excellent reviews.
My firmware is updated but I had to use another machine with IE9 and Windows 7 because apparently there is no way to do this with IE10, although I did try to bring down the security settings for this to work but to no avail, it may be possible to do so with more work.
I also can't use my router gateway settings .gws file to restore my routers settings in case it crashes, IE10 think's it's a script and therefore won't let me run it.
My worry is that if I updated all my other Windows 7 machines to IE10 I wouldn't be able to perform firmware updates on my router or access point or use the .gws file to restore the gateway settings. | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Home built

I've noticed this behaviour at my TAFE. - All of the machines were bought in bulk (i.e. identical specs)
- They all use the same HDD image
- Some of the machines have problems with certain programs.
That's an amusing video.

Update was released it works with version 17. I checked for a "TabMix Plus" update a few hours ago (in my Windows 7 VM).
I then updated Firefox (to 17.0.1) and "TabMix Plus" worked correctly. 
Thanks for the "heads up" though.  | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number n/a
