New FireFox Review

Recommended Posts

http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/

 

I was having some issues w/ my old version of FF (v2) and finally upgraded to v3. It was pretty smooth - no major issues or anything here.

 

The problem I had earlier was my FF was getting over 600k in the mem usage and now we are at a cool 71k. I've read a few things online that talk about how FF can 'wear out' and you have to reinstall or upgrade, so I upgraded to the new version.

 

Looks nice!

 

Really liking this skin to - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/7527

ONE WARNING - SOME ADD ON'S ARE NOT COMPATIBLE W/ NEW VERSION.

CHECK FIRST IF THERE IS AN ADD ON THAT YOU MUST HAVE.

In my experience starting with the original V3 betas V2 add ons don't cause trouble, they simply don't work.

 

Try tiny menu for a 1 line menu/button bar with only the things you want. Excellent add ons are Adblock Plus (much better than any advert remover with IE), removetabs, Tiny Menu (if you don't like clutter) and FireFTP (if you do a bit of ftp'ing and would like to use your browser).

Yes. Thats a good one MK.

 

Two others I used to have were Remove It Permanently to get rid of parts of pages that you can't classify as adverts and FoxClocks to put your important timezones on the status bar.

Tab Mix Plus is a must for Firefox.

 

IE Tab for compatibiliy issues.

 

No Script for browser integrity.

 

Fasterfox to speed up throughput.

 

GMail Manager for multiple GMail accounts.

 

FEBE for backing up all your Firefox extensions.

Using V3 since release. For me worth the update for a variety of reasons. A good excuse to chuck out the add ons you never really used. The only thing I am rolling with now is Foxmarks and a Dictionary.

 

Foxmarks saves your bookmarks on a server in the cloud. Useful for me syncing between laptop and desktops.

 

The biggest problem is no official 64 bit version. Mind you I hardly ever use my new turbo ninja dogs bollox PC. (*cough* games)

    • Date: 26th November 2024. Trump’s tariff threats boosted Dollar; Peso, Loonie, Gold & Oil Lower. The Trump trade picked up steam as investors cheered his pick for Treasury Secretary, Scott Bessent. Beliefs he will be a steadying voice in the administration’s fiscal measures, while still following President-elect Trump’s tariff and tax commitments, underpinned. Asia & European Sessions:   Trump threatened on Monday to impose sweeping new tariffs on China, Canada and Mexico on his first day as US President to crack down on illegal immigration and drugs. He would impose a 25% tax on all products entering the country from Canada and Mexico, and an additional 10% tariff on goods from China as one of his first acts as president of the US. Bessent’s 3-3-3 plan aims to cut the deficit to 3% of GDP, boost growth to 3%, and increase oil production to 3 mln barrels. Treasury yields dove in a curve flattener, extending their drops through the session, on expectations inflation will decelerate. A strong 2-year auction also supported. The Dow led the charge, climbing 0.99% to 44,736, a new record peak as the rally broadens. The S&P500 climbed to 6020, a session peak, but finished with a 0.3% gain to 5987. The NASDAQ closed 0.27% higher. Today, stock markets in Europe are posting broad losses, with the DAX down -0.6%, the FTSE 100 0.4%, after a largely weaker close across Asia. ECB: Lane suggests ECB must be open-minded on speed of rate cuts. The ECB’s Chief Economist said in a speech on Monday evening that “remaining open-minded about the speed and scale of adjustments is in fact a valuable strategy across various environments, as different situations may necessitate distinct approaches.” This careful, step-by-step strategy enables us to observe the responses of the economy to our decisions and continuously refine our understanding of their impacts.” The comments leave the door open to a 50 bp move in December, but also tie in with our expectation that the central bank will deliver a 25 bp while tweaking the forward guidance and commit to additional moves. Financial Markets Performance: The USDIndex hit a session high of 107.50 and is currently lower at 106.85. Mexican peso and Canadian dollar slumped as the dollar is being viewed as a haven after the comments of President-elect Donald Trump on tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China. USDCAD spiked to 1.4177 and USDMXN rallied to 20.74. Oil and Gold lost ground, in part on cooling geopolitical risks, and on Trump trades. Oil dropped -3.03% to $69.09 per barrel, in part on the Trump trade and on talk of a potential cease fire between Israel and Hezbollah. Similarly, gold fell -3.26% to $2605 per ounce.
