Firefox Extensions
Yes, I have been using Firefox for years as my primary web browser and as web designers have become more consistent in designing sites that meet web standards, there is very little you cannot do in Firefox. Get Firefox here.
What do I like best? Firefox works with just about any operating system. It saves passwords in an easy to view file. It stops pop-ups. It warns of phishing sites. It is not generally affected by hijackers. But most other features that you would notice are in the extensions.
Extensions: these are little add-ons that make life easier. Here are some of my favorites.
- Google browser sync--lets you sync bookmarks (favorites), cookies, passwords, etc. between different computers. And since I regularly use 2, it's important to me.
- Adblock Plus--blocks most web ads and lets you easily switch between blocking and not blocking.
- PDF download--lets you choose whether to download a PDF file to your computer and save it, or just view it in your browser. Often I just want to download it and look at it later.
If you are using Firefox, you can find extensions by clicking on Tools, Add-Ons, then clicking on Get Extensions on the lower left of the window that opens.
