What Themes/Extensions do you use with firefox?

Website · Post by **Damien** » Fri Jul 28, 2006 8:27 pm

I use

Videodownloader for embedded videos.
GreaseMonkey for script management adding add blocking and script blocking
NoScript: more script blocking
Adblock: for blocking annoying ads and sigs and avs I don't like plus other annoying parts.
BBcodeXtra: for right click formatting such as bold ect.
Flashblock: replaces flash with buttons to click to play them.
FavIconpicker: When sometimes my browser icons change to something they aren't suppose to be.

And my theme Azerty 3

What do you use???

auto copy is the shit, if you dont have it you dont deserve to use firefox.

no theme, too lazy to put one on, plus i like how it is now.

get 'Linky' and 'ImageZoom'

trust me damien, you will like both...

objective is that you are given lots of links... just highlight and right click, linky -> open all links in tabs. Perfect for sites like 'The Hun'.

highlight and auto copies, like irc. no need to right click.

I have the Noia 2.0 theme because the other ones suck. That's about it.

i think almost everyone uses the top extensions like IE tab, downloadthemall, adblock, etc...

the other extensions i use are all in one gestures, plain text links, web search pro, smooth wheel and ymail notifier.

the theme i use is flatfox mini, everything is the minimum size and border so the webspace is maximised.

Firefox has a tendency, I've noticed, to just randomly wipe- everything. Happened for the second time ever just now. All of my bookmarks are gone (except for a couple of random ones, an YTMND and SomethingAwful), and the Search field is empty- I haven't even been able to install any search engines since last time.

Does anyone have any idea what causes this? I've tried fully reinstalling Firefox, but the Search field still lacks search engines and I have to re-place the bookmarks icon next to the Home button every time I shut down and then boot up Firefox; it just disappears.

i never experienced that before. maybe its a profiles bug, or newly installed extentions were not rebooted before you installed new ones, or your extentions are in conflict with each other, or its a virus or something.

I haven't installed any new extensions in ages, I don't use profiles, and I scan my computer for viruses regularly.

I'm so lost. :'(

yeah i never installed anything extra.

do you have the same problem too, Malvado?

its probably something to do with your extensions in conflict. certain extensions cannot work together and i have experienced that before.

on topic, the "video downloader" extension is pretty useful. i just downloaded it cos there was this interesting 1hr interview with rupert murdoch in google video that i saw. then i dicovered more interviews warren buffet and the gates. i simply had to download them all but apparently google video doesnt support downloading these flv videos.

video downloader solved this!

Mune: It could that it changed profiles without you knowing. You might as well check if there are other profiles on your firefox.

Post by **panasonic** » Thu Aug 03, 2006 6:37 pm

how do u switch profiles? ive never managed to find that screen, and the help screen doesnt know either

Post by **Buzkashi** » Thu Aug 03, 2006 8:01 pm

Type firefox.exe -profilemanager into run.

Post by **panasonic** » Thu Aug 03, 2006 8:06 pm

it just opens up firefox

Post by **Buzkashi** » Thu Aug 03, 2006 8:06 pm

Well then I guess you only have one profile.

Post by **panasonic** » Thu Aug 03, 2006 8:38 pm

Post by **Buzkashi** » Thu Aug 03, 2006 10:56 pm
