I don’t know where I would be without a tabbed web browser. Plus all of the other features and the option to add extensions makes Firefox one hell of a piece of software!

I added some of the Extensions that you might need for FireFox:
1- CopyImage Adds a ‘Copy Image to Clipboard’ item to the context menu.
2- IE View – Adds “View page in Internet Explorer” links to the content and link context menu. Handy for previewing pages in IE, loading up IE-only pages when you run across them in Mozilla, etc. (Windows Only).
3- TabBrowser Extensions – Add-on package for extending operations of tabbed browsing, for example tabs become reorderable by drag and drop, but much much more than just that.
4- CuteMenus - Add icons to most of the menu-items in your popups and context menus.
5- JavaScript Console Status - This extension displays an icon in the status bar whenever a JavaScript warning or error occurs in a webpage. Clicking on the icon opens the JavaScript Console.
6- Live HTTP Headers – For the web developer, Adds information about the HTTP headers by adding a ‘Headers’ tab in ‘View Page Info’ of a web page, by adding a tool in the ‘Tools->Web Development’ menu to be able to display http headers in real time, and by letting you edit request headers and replay a URL.

I’ve been using Firebird the last few months and it’s great!! I didn’t even know anything about Firefox, it must be pretty new. I’ll have to check it out. Thanks, Mo.

Yep, Firefox is three days old, having been released on the the 10th. I’ve got so many extentions loaded now, man is this great or what. I like the tabbed browsing, but my favorite is the “Paste and Go” extention. Copy a url from anywhere…. right click the address bar, select “Paste and Go”… it auto pastes the url into the address bar, and automatically goes to that url… quite handy.
