[Viewer 2.5 with Web Profiles Has Arrived]

Ah, thank you, yes.  I quite naturally and sensibly disabled the SL viewer from accepting javascript and cookies, and redirect to my usual browser anyways.  So naturally I never picked up on the fact that Search and now Web Profiles are ignoring my suggestions.

And it looks like you answered the question on why they force-downloaded this program on me, apparently they snuck this in as an "option" in preferences and left it on automatic by default.

There's a lot of bad and untrustworthy behavior floating around here.  I might have to reevaluate my "no-second chances" stance on the third party viewers.

In the meantime LL, could you at least give me another ninja-Preference button so I can view and use the old profiles? See, I kinda liked being able to look someone up, offer inventory, see their whole list of Picks, select a Pick and teleport to their store, etc.  You have disabled a tremendous amount of functionality by going with these insecure web-based setups.

Can you address a number of things?

1. Why is this out of beta?  Moreover, why, as a 2.4 user, was this just FORCE installed on my system?

2. The web profiles are not functional.  They don't contain Picks, they don't let me edit anything, and since there are no Picks, I can no longer use this as a workaround for the broken Search function.

3. Why is the authorization token on search still permanently broken?

Meh, I guess it's back to the third party viewers if I want to actuall do anything in SL.
