If I die I have to go before Crom and he will ask me:
"What is the rule of Steel?"
And if I don't know it, he will cast me out of Valhalla and laugh at me!
That's Crom, strong on his mountain..

The Favorites EDIT bug is present again
(it was solved in beta4 and 5..or at least, it had seemed to be on my machine..)
Also the "ghost tab" bug is still here...

Well, I shut down AB, then launched it again...now the edit windows correctly open in the foreground...Pip wrote:I don't see the favorites edit bug in beta006.
But anyway, as it did not before...I think this part of AB code should be looked into..

Favicon problems
This version adds the wrong favicons to my links - e.g. google has the correct favicon, but Neowin has the google favicon. Same for my blog.

Sounds like your icon cache needs a repair. TeakUI has a repair tool for that: http://www.annoyances.org/exec/show/tweakui
Some people have found FavOrg help in maintaining favicons:

I don't know whether it's related to the cache.
In my case, the situation was back to normal when I restarted the browser...so, again, I guess it's got something to do with the code..(of course I may be wrong!)

Throughout most, maybe all, of these 9.02 betas, I'm on Beta 006 now, I've noticed a bug with the pop-up window blocker. With the pop-up blocker enabled, try this webpage: http://www.popuptest.com/popuptest1.html
Invisible webpage tabs will open. You won't see them, obviously, until you completely close AB, even from the systray, and reload. Then you'll see the "blocked" pages. I have my AB configured to save all open tabs when exiting so be sure you have that enabled before you test or else it won't work.
Here is a screenshot of a legit page block that I didn't notice until I opened up a new tab.
<< Well I guess I can't post a pic in the message and I don't have any webspace to link to >>
I can email the screen capture to whoever wants it but you'll see by the steps above that there is a problem and pop-ups aren't being blocked completely.

I can't make it happen, either. Heck, I can't even click outside of that dialog when it is open (Which is a good thing of course.)
EDIT: After fiddling with the fav menu, it kinda got frozen open..check it:
http://www.krinj.net/misc/frozenfavlist.swf.html
After I shot the video I doble clicked the favorites menu..button thing a bunch of times and ev entually got it to close. It was quite odd.
And then later after that while uploading that, Avant took high CPU, but that could of merely been because my whole system was acting up for a minute. If that happens again, I'll be sure to let you know.

I cannot click outside of the box as Coolnat said. It must be something about his computer that is letting him do this.
By The Way. Is there any changelog for 9.02 Beta 006?

Yes, it happens on my machine too. I can get it to reproduce by Editing a favorite and just drag it under the open Favorties menu. I run a pretty large resolution on my monitor so my default when I edit a favorite it doesn't pop under that menu but if I were running a smaller resolution or if my avant browser window was not full screen then I'd have the same problem as CROM.
FYI, I can not click on anything in the Avant window when I'm editing a favorite its just that the open/pull down menu of the Favorites is blocking the edit window.
