Added new privacy management tools, under "Option->Under the Hood->Content Settings..." which all for better management of images, JavaScript, plugins, and pop-ups."

Langforge also mentioned, "automatic translation does not work for Chinese language sites; uninstall problem on Google Chrome and Chromium; crashes following the installing of a current Beta/Stable release after an uninstall; multiple exceptions can occur, related to the Content Settings UI; when "Ask me ..." is set, cookies are still set without asking; pop-up settings changed in bubble are not saved."
