Main improvements:
- imrpoved hardware accelertion
- WebGL also for older GPUs
- improved speed
- security fixes


Those security fixes are related to the 0day vulnerabilities that make able VUPEN to win Pwn2own 2012?
Could you post more details regarding those security fixes?
Thank you.

for example:

it should look like:

but it look like:

PS: every extension was disabled, it doesn't matter in which mode iron was running (normal or incognito)

flash version:

Flash - Wersja: 11,2,202,228
Shockwave Flash 11.2 r202
using "--disable-accelerated-compositing" solve this issue

Good for you. It does not work for me. Fonts are rendered very bad. The text is literally unreadable. I had to revert to version 17
I think this bug is related with the problem: Chromium: Issue 23440: Wrong text-shadow blur rendering http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issue ... l?id=23440

Great work. Much Gratitude for another fine update. I find coding about as legible as Chinese. So pouring through an ever growing code base must be tremendous. SRWare has my respect.

Hence, seeing as how the code changes, how do you go about removing Google's riff raff? Surely, reporting procedures and tracking mechanisms change per each update. I'm quite frankly puzzled as to how the Iron group tackles the seemingly overwhelming task of addressing any new methods the Chromium team injects within the code. The answer could very well be beyond my comprehension. Either way, Iron is the best. Thanks for sharing!

It seems to be hard to find the cause and solution for this problem.
--disable-webgl and/or --disable-accelerated-compositing did not make any difference

I'm running Windows 7 64bits, with all the latest updates. My notebook has two graphics boards. One with GPU 'high performance' and other 'power saver'. I've got the same results with both cards.

Here is another one having the exact same problem (and not having it on version 17). He is running XP SP3 32bits

I use windows xp sp3 32 bit. I have the same problem on every site and in Chrome own settings page!!! I tried to use stable version of Google Chrome 18.0.1025.152 and 18.0.1025.142. Only version 17 doesn't have this problem. Now I use again Chrome 17. Please, fix this problem!!!

This is a question for the developers of Iron.

Is there anyway that a way to natively and reliably build a mechanism to disable meta-refresh into the next upcoming versions ?

As with regards to : http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issue ... l?id=63107

This issue is deliberately being ignored by google for the only purpose because it doesn't suite their bottom line.
We desperately need the ability to do this on a peer page bases because of things like rotating ads and other issues as well that dramatically affect performance on some computers. Please say its possible.
