And much much more. There is an extension called adblock which will kill every banner ad image flash ad etc. Firefox already handles popups quite well.

I just got adblock, it's great. I'm thoroughly enjoying it.

Ask and i shall send you my overwhelmingly large adblock filter list.

Neon- Enjoy your posts very much, quite helpful. I have a couple dozen extensions, and -knock-on-wood- every one has worked as it should. Do you have Smiley Xtra 3.01? If so, forgive these Smilies. If not, enjoy:

Thanx, ps i like that picture and the emoticon
I prefer not to load up on extensions in default mode, as all i have running is adblock and the irc extension. Sometimes i will load the profile with a bunch of extensions if i wanted to show off or to do something specific.

i also downloaded Firefox Techguy It is fast but mostly i find internet connection and Pc performance make up for most of the speed! with dial up pages just sit there! Coudos to Firefox also spyware guard also recognizes firefox which is great! partly why i downloaded it!

just a question guys, maybe behind the discussion,
I've been also testing Firefox but also wanted to compare it to other browsers. So the thing I did is that I also installed CrazyBrowser and Opera. But now I'm thinking whether it is safe for my PC to have them all and if it hurts it in some way.
Just thought it could be the best way to choose the proper (for my PC and me of course) browser.
or you've got another idea how to make the best choice?? (Firefox's gonna be the answer??? )
THX guys

firefox is gonna be the answer, i find other browsers less secure, ugly, or to beefed up to be as good as firefox. Now, as long as proper security measures are taken such as firewalls and configuring settings for each browser, i don't think there should be a problem 'cept windows getting a headache from all the browsers

[Darekk1982]

yeah, sounds good!!!
but isn't it like choosing the one browser that best fits your internet connection or something? I'm not so sure but it seems like firefox is rather slow and often doesn't display some sites. Is there a way to configure it somehow?? I'm dialing-up so maybe there's a problem??
and what about my question: isn't it risky having a couple of browsers installed and using them all (maybe not at the same time, just to test them), I mean I don't want to trouble my PC to much but I think I'm doing so by this.

I've got three browsers on my system , and used to be more, its never caused me any problems

Somewhere in Tips and Tricks forums theres some advice about hot to speed up firefox, although i haven't done it myself (dont use ff)

[I Fix 4 U]

I'm a broadband user, i wouldn't know about firefox 56k problems. Like i said if you properly configure each security settings for all browsers and ur os and have a firewall and/or virus scanner, you should be safe.

[Darekk1982]

thx guys
I've got firewall and all that stuff on my PC so I'm protected, hopefully. So I'm gonna get back to safely test my browsers!!!
I'm feeling at ease now...

I'll take you up on that kind sir! I kinda need the actual extension first though, would you mind?

Private message me a contact time, but i think you can post txt files here but i'm not.

[Darekk1982]

fellows, I'm too lazy to search Mozilla forums so maybe someone could tell me if it is possible to make firefox open a new tab every time I type address in the location bar. I mean to make Ffox do it automatically when I type there and click enter.
