    Running your Browser in a VM?

    • Install VMware Player or Virtualbox, VMware being faster in my experience
    • Create a VM with sufficent RAM HD and all CPU cores
    • Install Ubuntu/Linux Mint/Debian or some lightweight distro with Xcfe or LXDE
    • Install VMware/Virtualbox tools
    • Almost any distro comes with Firefox
    • Install Ublock Origin/Noscript/Ghostery
    • Disable cookies with a whitelist/use private browsing.
    In my experience, running a browser through a VM can slow down scrolling smoothness, video playback and increase ping delay

    Feature suggestion: Add VMware logo for VMware videocard

    I am using a Windows 7 64-bit OS with VMware on it, on which I run various VMs.
    When running GPU-Z under a VMware VM, the videocard logo in GPU-Z is empty.
    I see that GPU-Z is aware VMware exists, looking at the stats here:
    http://www.techpowerup.com/gpuz/stats.php

    I suggest adding a VMware logo, since clicking the logo shows the GPU-Z About screen, and with no logo you can't click (although you can find the About screen in the system menu).
    Here is a good logo:
