Suggested Firefox Extentions

To revive this thread...

Better Privacy:
* https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6623
* http://netticat.ath.cx/BetterPrivacy/BetterPrivacy.htm <-- Preferred Link (Newer version)

This add-on deletes the "Super Cookies" stored by Flash & other browser plugins called "Local Shared Objects" that Firefox can't even see or even touch.

Better Privacy add that support to make your web surfing a little more secure & annoynmous.

I've been using Cookie Swap because I have three different Yahoo email accounts and corresponding Youtube accounts. It works great and I don't have to use IE or manually log out and in anymore.

I picked up a new add-on that has been a GODSEND for me as it managed to fix my problems with Firefox.

Vaccuum Places Improved -- https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/13878

This add-on defrags (Vaccuums) your Places Database (Bookmarks / History / ect.) within Firefox. When that database gets fragmented, it can really drag Firefox's performance down, so this add-on can take care of that issue & prevent it from happening again.

You can set it up to remind you to do the cleaning OR have it set to automate the clean-up after so many boots (like after every 50 uses).

Thanks for the heads up on the extensions! I've noticed firefox can slow down to a crawl once in a great while, so hopefully this latest one will stop that deal.

That Vaccuum add-on definitely helped on my older computer. Glad you pointed that one out.

It's mostly a matter of preference on with one you want to use. Personally, I'm using Weatherbug as the weather station I'm getting my data from is coming from the local middle school (granted it's 5 miles away from me, it's better than 15 miles away).

Whichever you choose, it's one of the must-haves!

You can surf the Internet access to relevant data and information, and discuss with friends, maybe can help you, wish you good luck.
