Hello all,
I updated from version 7 to version 8 build 1482, then 1483 a few days ago with no major issues... and everything seems to run smoothly on my system since (which is a relief because V7's last builds had been troublesome somewhat for me).
First, like some here, I can't say that I'm overly keen on the new "Homepage" design: I find it a bit boring and its usefulness is beyond me (except for the fact that it clearly shows that I don't have access to some features, as I'm using the free version, and that I can go to the "market" if I feel like spending).
Fortunately, the UI remembers the last tab I was on on closing, so that's one sorted.
The Software Updater and Browser Cleaner are quite cute additions (although a bit "gadgety").
However, after installation on a secondary PC, the Updater did make me realize that I had forgotten to update some programs.
As for the Cleaner, I was actually expecting "more", in the sense that it boasts the possibility to get rid of "unwanted toolbars". What it doesn't say is that it's actually scanning indiscriminately for any plugins, add-ons installed, legitimate or not.
It would certainly save scrolling time and potential unwanted errors, if that scan was referenced to known adware, malware toolbars and would show only those.
Finally, I'm a bit perplexed by the apparent multiplication of menus and submenus. For example, in my mind, Software Updater, Browser Cleaner and Ad Blocker are all "tools", and as for now, they can be found in 3 separate places, which is a bit confusing.
