First, 2 months ago, the IE6 refused to work properly, now Mozilla also works in the same manner (v 2.0.0.3, seems that after beeng automatically updated from 2.0.0.2). It shows that misterious 'about:PreferenceStyleSheet' in CSS Style Rules in the 2-nd line, ignoring all the following CSS-settings, and also shows the greatly reduced list of media links in Tools-PageInfo-Media. In the same time version 1.6 works well ! The most surprising for me is the fact of presence both IE6 and Mozilla. It' perfectly not a driver problem. I have the same problem with Windows XP SP2.

When I installed the next available build after the one that this post was about, the problem had been fixed, and it hasn't been back for me since. My best guess is that maybe it's related to your drivers... I hear that nvidia are still having problems with their Vista drivers (not sure what the problems are about though, maybe they are unrelated or it's an urban myth anyway). I'm using ATI drivers and they work just fine. Hm, that’s interesting… the only feedback I can give you now is that I haven’t seen this problem for a very long time.
