* The CONFIRMQUIT tooltype was only checked for the quit menu but not for the close menu when the last window is closed, fixed (bugs.os4depot.net issue #44). * Using version 2.7.1 of libxml2 instead of 2.7.2 again, should fix some crashes. * Built the current versions of libcairo and libpixman-1 as static link libraries, with the static libraries OWB works on AmigaOS 4.0 again. * OWB 2.15 is linked with static libraries. Might fix the startup crashes I never get on my systems, but could cause even more crashes since most of the static versions of the libraries I have are older than the shared versions and very likely have more bugs.
The only thing that is needed now is the downloading of files. Have you ever thought to use one of the existing download managers like Charon or HttpResume through ARexx (http://www.heightanxiety.com/)? Specifically, the charon is a great program for such tasks.
edit... Maybe you could add an icon parameter so that someone could gine the arexx command for the downloads. With this method, everyone could use an other program which he prefers. In case it is empty, then the OWB could use it's future solution for this.

I've isolated this problem: it depends by SFS. I've moved my entire system from SFS partitions to FFS2 partitions, and now OWB doesn't crash anymore, and even NewsCoaster now right works... Please joerg test yourself, I haven't change any system file or third parts library, I've just only make a backup, converted partitions from SFS to FFS2 and re-copied files properly. I've even activated FFS2 cache plugin on my partitions...
Here A1 G4 underclocked to 800mhz, 256mb ram, OS4.1, hd IDE on SiL060...

Except for test partitions for the PartitionWizard FFS functions I don't have any FFS partitions, my SYS: partitions and the ones on which OWB is are SFS partitions.

Try if it works using a slower speed, for example if you HD supports UDMA5 use UDMA4, and make sure the cables are correct (80 wire flat, don't use round cables and check that the master/slave drives are connected to the matching connector).

For os 4.1 user is better to use this version or the previous one about the speed ? as the previous one used the Cairo.. ?
2.15 uses Cairo as well, even a newer version than the one included in AmigaOS 4.1. OWB never used the AmigaOS bitmap surfaces which are only in the AmigaOS 4.1 version of Cairo. With static libraries it should be a little bit faster than with shared ones, and it's loaded much faster.

That would have the same problems as the download hack in OWB Blastoise: OWB would abort the download and pass the URL to the download manager which would download it again, and that doesn't work on some sites which only allow a single download per IP.
EDIT: Facebook works again. I just had some internet problems it seemd :D
When i start OWB it asks me for.. Please insert volume file: in any drive. If i press cancel then it goes to my page. With previous version it didnt asks me for that volume. Do i use wrong way to load my page from my partition ? This is the link i use.

Gif anims currently don't work in OWB (all versions, it's not related to the AmigaOS 4.x port).

Here it even crashes after pressing cancel Network handling, incl. file:// URLs, is done by libcurl in OWB. As I wrote in the release notes the static versions of most libraries I have are older and may have more bugs than the shared versions, the static libcurl.a is obviously such a case and handling of file:// URLs is broken in it.

I assume these are built with newlib, right?
If so could you upload them to OS4Depot? I tried building them a while back but I must have done something wrong because the program I compiled with them just crashed immediately (I didn't have this problem with Andrea's port).
