ok i went and installed overwolf and it seems fine for now :)

now my next problem is the links i had with the now removed in game browser i can recall most of them but there are 2 in particular that i could really do with but cannot recal the url for them.

is there anyway to get these back or are they stored somewhere on my pc in eve folders?

thanks

Yes, read the dev posts in the feedback thread, there's instructions on where and how to get them.

There are also methods to make your browser remain always on top. Before I upgraded to multi-screen setup I used it to keep my browser over eve because the igb always worked horribly for me.

You would think after 2 iterations CCP would be able to come up with a map worth a flying flip. But they haven't. The lack of the in game browser really just points at how bad new alpha clones are going to be lost with the abortion that is the new map, it's worse than the old map. Let's make a 3d spinnable map in every axis that doesn't give ANY indicaiton of which direction you have the map turned when people refer to "in the north" and have for a decade.

For those without multiple monitors feel sorry for you.
