This program has been one of my favorites for a long time. It saddens me that there has been no signifigant updates in forever. iComic is one of my most often crashing programs. It seems to get confused a lot, and simply shuts down. The spinning beach ball is quite annoying, too.
That being said, one can't blame the program for plug-ins breaking. The comic sites change their code from time to time. iComic does have a very good feedback group on Yahoo! where coders often fix plug-ins that break as soon as someone mentions it. I've never had to wait too long for a plug-in to be fixed.
My biggest complaint about iComic is the frequent and often unexplained crashing. I don't like widgets, so I will not be using iComic 4. I still hope for an update to iComic 3 one day. I still love this program, tempermental as it can be, and don't see myself switching any time soon. You simply can't beat the price.
