5 Useful Firefox Add Ons
by SAB on Jan.22, 2009, under Technology
FIRESIZER
Firesizer is one of those unique and handy add ons for people who are most likely too picky about their internet browsing (like me.) You can save window sizes and quickly change Firefox’s window size to any that you like.
NEW TAB HOMEPAGE
An addon that is so simple, its name describes everything it does. Sets Firefox to open your homepage every time you open a new tab.
REF CONTROL
When you click on a link it sends along with it where you came from, or the referer. This is useful for some sites (like WordPress) but in most cases presents a privacy concern. With Ref Control you can control what pages refer what. You can see how it works by googling “What is my referer?”
NO SCRIPT
No Script has become the standard for locking down your internet. Helps control malicious scripts, and generally helps to make Firefox the safest browser you can use.
ADBLOCK PLUS
Adblock Plus will disable most of the annoying advertisements on the internet. Makes news sites, social sites, etc more aesthetically pleasing.
