Your favorite Mozilla Firefox Extensions

Firefox is the best browser available in the market right now.
These are some the most useful firefox extensions and you would love having them. First of all firefox extensions
are small add-ons to the browser to add a new flavor of browsing. You can totally transform your browser for your
own unique purposes.

The first extension everyone should go, no matter what is

Adblock Plus

Firefox is a very secure and reliable browser and it has a good pop-up blocker. But what about those infuriating
ads on the webpages. Get rid of them with Adblock Plus. Just install and forget about it. The next add on will do all
the updating.

Adblock Filterset.G Updater
Updates your filters for Adblock Plus for optimum performance in blocking ads

Stic king with security the next add on you should go for is the McAfee SiteAdvisor.
This provides in depth analysis of websites marking them safe, dangerous, nuisance (like popups or spam). This is
very useful especially if you do lot of googling.

And last but not least is Dr.Web anti-virus link checker which you can webpages for viruses just like you would scan
a regular file on your hard-disk.

Going on to performance the most recommended add on is Fasterfox. This performs tweaks to firefox's config file
that boosts up the speed of surfing. This is especially visible in broadband connections.

Want more screen real-estate get the extension Hide Menubar. This autohides the menu bar providing more space but
the menu bar can be brought up by pressing the Alt button. Want to always access downloads and can't remember to press
Ctrl + J. Get the All in one Sidebar. You can access your history, extensions, downloads and bookmarks as well as view page
information
Hide Menu Bar - Download From:
https://addons.mozilla.or g/en-US/firefox/addon/4762
All in one Sidebar - Download From:
https://addons.mozilla.or g/en-US/firefox/addon/1027

I also suggest getting Cooliris Preview. You can preview links with a small pop up screen showing whats on the next page.
Useful in checking search results and also images and blogs.

Hate Internet Explorer, me too but sometimes you would need to use the browser for some webpages and that is why
