I agree with the negative remarks regarding the Bing searchbar.
Even though we have to use Windows, enough is enough!

And I can say more. Please make empty/new tab 100% empty. Now when you look into page source there are several scripts. This is also offensive and it upsets people.

We will make the search field optinal. However, all scripts are running local. There is no data transmitted or any servers contacted - unless you use the search by hand.

Thank you very much. It should be optional and the empty TAB should be empty without any HTML tag. Just empty, free from any copyright, style, head snd so on.

Nothing like above please. Empty should be empty.

I have some other functionality proposal:

1. Random useragent
2. Protection against canvas fingerprinting. Some websites tries to do it.

Perhaps I did something wrong but I installed the latest build from the download page and when I check About Iron it shows as being 44.0.2350.0 and not V.49. Can anyone help me with this?

See here:
viewtopic.php?f=18&t=8758#p25679

The switch is now accessible and appears to work as expected when set to Disabled.

Very nice implementation of Chrome. Using Iron 64 as my default browser; amazing fast and stable. Thanks, SR!

How would one best 'upgrade' from Iron 32 to Iron 64? Is it a simple matter of installing the 64 bit over the 32 bit version?

Please note that I would like to preserve my current settings (bookmarks, extensions, etc...)

Thanks for your help.

Installing over the old version is no problem. You will not loose your bookmarks, but maybe have to reinstall extensions.
However, bookmark your profile before doing.
