OmniWeb and Age of Empires II potential conflict Web Browsers
Since upgrading to Jaguar, OmniWeb has been running exceptionally slowly for me, especially when using things like Google. The exact symptom is that many pages take a while to load. For exmpale, Google search results took 13 seconds to load instead of 2.

After a lot of troubleshooting, and many e-mails back and forth with Omni Group, I found the problem: If you have Age of Empires II, you probably have a font called "Age of Empires II Fonts" in your ~/Library/Fonts folder. If you remove this font, OmniWeb gets much speedier (on my computer at least), and AoE II still seems to work fine.

I have already notified Omni Group, so we'll see if they manage to find a work around. Until then, you can use mine. :)

[Editor's note: Untested here as I don't have AoE to test with.]
