New FireFox Review

Recommended Posts

http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/

 

I was having some issues w/ my old version of FF (v2) and finally upgraded to v3. It was pretty smooth - no major issues or anything here.

 

The problem I had earlier was my FF was getting over 600k in the mem usage and now we are at a cool 71k. I've read a few things online that talk about how FF can 'wear out' and you have to reinstall or upgrade, so I upgraded to the new version.

 

Looks nice!

 

Really liking this skin to - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/7527

ONE WARNING - SOME ADD ON'S ARE NOT COMPATIBLE W/ NEW VERSION.

CHECK FIRST IF THERE IS AN ADD ON THAT YOU MUST HAVE.

In my experience starting with the original V3 betas V2 add ons don't cause trouble, they simply don't work.

 

Try tiny menu for a 1 line menu/button bar with only the things you want. Excellent add ons are Adblock Plus (much better than any advert remover with IE), removetabs, Tiny Menu (if you don't like clutter) and FireFTP (if you do a bit of ftp'ing and would like to use your browser).

Yes. Thats a good one MK.

 

Two others I used to have were Remove It Permanently to get rid of parts of pages that you can't classify as adverts and FoxClocks to put your important timezones on the status bar.

Tab Mix Plus is a must for Firefox.

 

IE Tab for compatibiliy issues.

 

No Script for browser integrity.

 

Fasterfox to speed up throughput.

 

GMail Manager for multiple GMail accounts.

 

FEBE for backing up all your Firefox extensions.

Using V3 since release. For me worth the update for a variety of reasons. A good excuse to chuck out the add ons you never really used. The only thing I am rolling with now is Foxmarks and a Dictionary.

 

Foxmarks saves your bookmarks on a server in the cloud. Useful for me syncing between laptop and desktops.

 

The biggest problem is no official 64 bit version. Mind you I hardly ever use my new turbo ninja dogs bollox PC. (*cough* games)

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful. Remember, sometimes what you throw in the garbage is something that someone wishes ever to have.” – ElZee, Quora   Profits from free accurate cryptos signals: https://www.predictmag.com/
