A few bugs...

After importing all settings from Firefox 3.6 to Comodo Dragon v1.0.0.5 I find few issues:

  • Bookmarks doesn’t have their icons saved by Firefox. This doesn’t happen when I use MozBackup with Firefox. So I guess three is a way to import those icons as well;

  • Homepage is not overwritten while importing settings;

  • Keywords assigned to search engines are not imported and are replaced by domain names, e.g.

Firefox:
Search engine: Google
Keyword: ggl

Comodo Dragon v1.0.0.5:
Search engine: Google
Keyword: google.pl

What about an option to disable referrer? Are you planing to add such feature?

even though very very few sites require http referrer, an intreasting idea :-La

While I don’t know the solution, may getting an add-on call “greasemetal” <----something like that

a script possibilities like this

// ==UserScript==
// [at]name           googlePrivacy
// [at]namespace      download
// [at]description    Gets rid of almost every google tracking device including tracking cookies without killing your preferences.

Nothing has changed with Comodo Dragon 1.0.0.9. :-\

As for the referrer, I now know that there is a command line switch, unfortunelly it doesn’t work correctly and sometimes the browser sends referrer although is instructed otherwise. (read more about this problem)
