Thanks, Danie!
I'll look at this "skipstone" browser.
Galeon, from my experience, is nice (low startup time, faster than Mozilla 
dispaly of renderired HTML, etc.)... until you start browsing.
In fact, it was crashing for me too often, more often than Mozilla itself.
May be, Skipstone is better?.. :-)
