	And when you hit this free webspace pages that throw out all the 
pop-up windows (that Konqueror here refuses to stop spanning)...

	There's actually a _really_ fast browser around, even though
it's not polished at all, and has a number of problems, which might make
it annoying to use: netraider. It's fast, lightweight and uses
Konqueror's render engine. Unfortunately, development seems to be
stalled, even though the things that need sorting out don't seem to hard
to do (annoying bit #1: if you have a URL such as
http://site.com/my_falling_revenue.gif, instead of printing a graph of
my assets :D, it will start with a GIF89 blob of random text :D).
