Firefox Final Release Tomorrow...

[ogryn]

Over 1million reported downloads in its first day.

This site has a list of its top 10 useful extensions... I've just downloaded the FTP (fantastic!!!): http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,1558,1721458,00.asp

Can I also add ForcastFox for your consideration: http://forecastfox.mozdev.org/installation.html it gets data from Weather.com and displays it in your statusbar.

OOoooooo!! Me likey the weather one!! Good call!! Do you have any other recommendations you'd like to make?? :sohappy:

These are what I have...

Check-Out the Extensions forum at http://www.mozillazine.org for a whole raft of them (even ones that aren't on update.mozilla.org)

Also, Charamel is a very nice theme... when it gets updated to 1.0

Look how "hardcore" you could be.... download Lynx Browser. In its favour, it is lightning quick!!!

As in typing Dict into the Address Bar?

You need a folder called Quick Searches in your Bookmarks, and a Bookmark like:

Name: Dictionary.com Quick Search
Location: http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=%s
Keyword: dict
Description: Type "dict <word>" in the addressbar to perform a dictionary look-up

actually i could highlight the word.. right click.. and get the word directly into dictionary.com.... (helpful, when having to define words and cut some of the inbetweentime..)

Thx Ogryn for all your help with FF. I went through your tutorials and I am very happy with FF. The TAB function is awesome. I will try your fix when I am at work next week. I installed on my home system and Flash installed just fine.

I look forward to playing with extensions!

Dictionary Search Extension: http://dictionarysearch.mozdev.org/installation.html

If you had it before, it may have been disabled for 1.0. Either try Enabling it from the Extensions window, or you'll have to wait for the author to update it for 1.0

Hope that's the answer :wave:

Thanks for the direct link for Flash. It installed just fine from that link. I appreciate the help.
