What Firefox extensions do you use? (THE SEQUEL)

Feba · 10-24-2007, 11:46 PM

Well, we had What FireFox extensions do you have? this thread a year ago, I'm interested in seeing what's changed since then.

I've noticed that even in my old post there are some plugins that I haven't got anymore that look damn useful!

Personally, I've got:

AdBlock, filterset G, etc. I haven't seen an ad I haven't wanted to in for-freaking-ever. Must have for ANYONE using the internet at all, imo. If computers are like cars, networks are roads, and the internet is a highway. Anything to take away from the distracting advertisements is great. Plus, it's good for blocking annoying elements on pages, like things covering up other things and such.

User Agent Switcher. Mainly only useful for uber-crappy sites that don't accept firefox, I haven't used this in a long time, but when it's useful, it's very useful.

Rikaichan. Useful if you want to get an idea of what the occasional random kanji is, would also be useful for someone who understands a good amount of Japanese, but still runs into problem words.

and last, but definitely not least, Tab Mix Plus. There's way too much stuff I love this plugin for to even bother trying to talk about it here. Just go play with it yourself, even my friend that hates tabs uses it.

and since looking at the old thread, I'm going to take the advice of a younger and far stupider me and try Connect to address, Show Anchors, TryAgain, and URL Fixer. Thanks, me!

AdBlock. And the vanadiel clock one. That's it.

NoScript - Java script blocker. After seeing a friend getting a virus from hitting a website that had something nasty embedded in it's Java, it's a no brainer.

FEBE - back up those extensions!

Kuro This is a thread about firefox extensions. If you don't use firefox extensions, go start a new thread for whatever you want to talk about.

Sometimes I just want to ruffle your hair like an illegitimate son I'm proud of but can't quite force myself to own up to.

Oh, and only Adblock Plus here so far.

I have the same experience with Tab Mix Plus.

"FUCK FUCK FUCK I DID NOT WANT TO CLOSE THAT TAB I WAS RANTING ABOUT CRAP THERE FUCK FUCK RIGHT CLICK UNDO CLOSE TAB UNDO CLOSE TAB" happens at least every few days.

Now if only they'd make a firefox plugin that would hide all of my posts from Icemage, I'd be golden.

Skoal · 10-25-2007, 01:28 PM

Just adblockplus. Love it.

I do wonder if my intellect can do battle on such a high plateau as yours.
