One method...

Firefox (http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/)

Plus a suitable Theme, BlackJapan (https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1390/) or BlackJapanMAX (https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/3248/) or EarthShift (https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/2205/) or PitchDark for FX (https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1529/) or OrangeShift (https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/2296/) ( slight Halloween feel ) or Halloween (https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1360/) or...

:beer: Mike

~ nods ~ yep! very :cool: indeed. Personally I really! like it.

If you use the Firefox extension "MR Tech Local Install (https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/421/)", it will allow you to install and use Firefox 2 Themes ( or Extensions ) that have not yet been updated.

Disclaimer: Obviously if you choose to use a Firefox 2 Theme ( or Extension ) that has not yet been updated, you may experience some issues / problems.

Thanks Mike.

For the moment, I'm sticking with Orbit Grey (https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/2115/) wich I find neat and clear and looks good in the Zune themed window.
