Re: OT: Spread Firefox
I use :
Dom Inspector
OpenBook (customizing bookmarks)
QuickNote (kindof a quick NotePad within Firefox)
Search Status (I need to check google and alexa rankings for my work)
But that Tabbrowser Extensions sounds good. I might have to look into that one.
I probably should look into Zoomy also (my old eyes)

Re: OT: Spread Firefox
You have to admit there is something very appealing about having the option to install extentions that you choose. 
Customizable is the best selling feature for any program IMHO now a days. Moddable would fall under this catagory as well.

Weird...Firefox has never crashed for me in all the months I've used it....until today. Ironically, it was less than 12 hours after reading your post  You've cursed me!!

Re: OT: Spread Firefox
Somehow saying that a program has never crashed on my makes me think the music should change. You know, like it does in a horror movie when the guy tells the girl "we should be safe here". But I will take a chance and chime in that I havent had any crashes. I HAVE been careful about extensions that come from sites other than the main one, and putting in so many that a clash is bound to happen.

Re: OT: Spread Firefox
AvantBrowser does everything I've seen mentioned in this thread, without having to track down and install extensions. It also does a few things (e.g. page zoom) that I haven't been able to find for firefox. The interface is more customizable (and better looking, imho), and it evens allows the google toolbar (never could get that to work with firefox).
It's a smaller download than firefox, too.
Oh, and all the stuff that only runs with IE will run with AvantBrowser (mostly because it is a shell extension for IE).

Re: OT: Spread Firefox
There are plenty of IE extensions: myie2/maxthon, avantbrowser, netcaptor. But they won't save you from kilometer-wide security holes in IE.

Re: OT: Spread Firefox
Maybe not, but a little common sense can work wonders "Don't surf where you wouldn't walk"
