5) Even more depressing, PUZ frequently confuses 'Open in New Window' requests (Command-Click) as popups, and kills the newly opening window; usually it is never seen; apparently PUZ is making good on its promise to make "undesirable" windows invisible before death; PUZ-oriented death is indicated by the selected sound option being made active. Subsequent Command-Clicks on the same link will now fail repeatedly, until one Command-Clicks on another link to "clear the logjam"; which may or may not work; if successful, one may be able to return to the desired link and now a Command-Click will actually open the previously "dead" link in a new window as desired. 6) Clicking on Toolbar Favorites has always been flakey in IE 5.x (many users complain that instead of activating the link, it acts like a Control-Click and gives the menu), but now with PUZ 2.0, many Toolbar Favorites clicks simply are ignored, or may behave as in (5) above. The final nail in the coffin for this release is that a Command-Click on a Toolbar Favorite Folder simply *will not* open that folder in a new window; requiring one to Control-Click and use the menu selection instead. Lots of bugs to fix here before this can be tolerated full time; let me know if there's some feedback I can provide; the only possibly relevant issues I can suggest right off are that I run multiple monitors (6), and also use numerous GUI enhancers, such as Keyboard Maestro, FruitMenu, WindowShadeX and others that "listen" for keystrokes.
