I tried today to do something I've done many times before, so that I could search the global history. What I do is to open the global history from the icon bar icon, do menu over the history > History > Export, and drag the file to the icon bar icon. This opens the hotlist in HTML, and you can then use the search option. Today, when I got to the stage of dragging the icon to the icon bar I get the weird error message "Unable to save the hotlist", (yes, hotlist!) with a beep, but NetSurf doesn't crash. I have the logfile, and will report this on the bug-tracker, in the hope that this possibly might shed some light on what's going on.
