What are the "Must Have" extensions for Firefox

Oh damnnn its soo simple
right click on tab and pin as app tab thats it !!!!
and i did the same for gmail too

 

Ouch. I've seen such a response by another 'friend' of mine. Anyway, from what I can tell (personal judgment here), Memory Fox isn't a tricky malware.

Based on my understanding, PrevX, Hitman Pro and other security software which have aggressive heuristics or may either be a HIPS or have HIPS-like component would 'detect' or 'alert' you of it due to it's nature of being an executable located at Firefox Profile Folder which tries to access the memory of other apps if you set it to "Memory Recovery For All Running Application Processes". If you un-check the option, it should abide by your setting (unless there's a bug). Just set your security software to allow,'trust', or ignore it.

I trust the developer...you can see his post here on MozillaZine.

I would have used AFOM ("the elder brother") from the same developer, IDEVFH but it's no longer supporting Firefox beyond V3.6. There's no point if anyone here is thinking of force-installing that by skipping compatibility check since it simply won't work even if you manage to get it installed.

I'm not trying to convince anyone it's 'malware-free' if you really think it isn't. Everyone is entitled to his/her opinion and I'm merely stating mine as it is.

 

Memory Fox is not malware. We believe you but mimic such actions, which make it look like malware. Prevx detects it as malware. I reported it as FP, but they might have more evidence about its malicious nature.

 

Any replacement for Keyscrambler for use in FF4 Beta?

 

"Memory Fox" 5.2 continues to run after the exit of Firefox so as the global processes can be accessed for memory recovery and retention. If you've got the Event logging checked on from the Options dialog it will access the Windows Event server. I am waiting for Mozilla to mature the Gecko 2.0 so as I can rebuild "Memory Fox" under the XPCOM and "AFOM" as well.

My suggestion to any users would be that to determine any malicious intent on the part of "AFOM" or "Memory Fox" is to check the Inbound/Outbound of the TCP/IP connection with a packet sniffer to validate such claims.

Professional developers would without reservation spot improper activity for any such add-on hosting on AMO Mozilla.

Thanks for all of you that do use "Memory Fox" or "AFOM" for memory recovery !

Special thanks to users ( safeguy ) and ( Boyfriend ) for the information concerning and supporting the usage intention of "AFOM" or "Memory Fox" !

Feel free to email me for any follow ups : idevfh@gmail.com

Thanks IDEVFH for your reply I use Memory Fox because I do believe you people. It is running right now on my Firefox installation.

 

Last pass and xmarks dont like each other ?

 

i just installed - SimilarWeb - Sites Recommendation
after it was installed i right-clicked on the toolbar>customise and dragged it to my toolbar.

now when i'm on some cool website i can find a whole lot more of them, quickly and easily.

the preferences have a lot of options, including good privacy and security options and encryption under advanced settings.

I just found BarTab extension, it'll load background tabs only when they are selected, good for those who open lots of tabs to read them later.

Also found an updated Tab History, Tab History Redux. I really missed that extension.

 

AdBlock Plus and the Element Hider, Dom Inspector, Stylish.

 

Open in Browser is very useful.

 

AdBan

Anyone else uses this? I'm quite satisfied with AdBlock Plus and Privoxy.

This support page has all of one post.

 

Well, it might be worth keeping an eye on. Sometimes I have had problems with the ABP filters, & not being an anorak, I don't always know what the problem is.

AFAIK there's no SeaMonkey version anyway ...

 

One could always ask at the forum; no dress code.

Re. SM, DKDC.

 

Yeah, good thinking.

Although to be honest, the anoraks tend to know all the answers (otherwise they wouldn't be anoraks in the first place). So I hope there are plenty there ...

 

I hope there's no circular logic involved but people over there do take issues raised seriously. There's also healthy competition among the maintainers of various lists. So there's good chance of a solution if one exists.

 

At the moment ABP is working fine on SeaMonkey (all computers, portables etc). However, I will look into this further.

 

This add-on sends all the urls you visit for the first time to their server, although this make it faster than ABP on older computers or netbooks, I wouldn't trust it.

This effectively means they decide what to block, while with Element Hiding Helper add-on and subscription lists you decide what to block.

 

OK, thanks for the information.

 

The same happens with Search Engines, doesn't it?
Not to mention about ISPs, Government & Police Authorities etc.

 

I don't get why or how the add-on can then be faster than ABP or Privoxy which both do the blocking "at home".

 

Very true. But then you have people not "trusting" Google and using Scroogle, whatever.

 

Yes, if a Search Engine keeps a log file with the user's IP, it is the end of the world....
All the sites people visit do the same, and all ISPs do the same.
So what?

 

Exactly, it doesn't bother me but judging by the number of "privacy" posts, it does bother a lot of people.

Now what about the other issue. Why or how will AdBan be quicker / more efficient than existing blockers?
