It seems to me that you are only connecting one browser widget to the
progress bar (on line 239):

Really, you need to be connecting the loadProgress(int) signal for each new
browser widget to a slot in the fastpatx class where it can decide how to
update the common progress bar depending on whether or not the browser widget
is the visible one.

You probably want to make the connection in the addNewTab() method, and
perform a check in your new slot which compares the sender() against the
browser obtained using your currentBrowser() method.
