My Firefox Extentions

I've had a few people ask me what Firefox extentions I use so here's a list along with discriptions....

Adblock - Allows you to remove ALL banner adverts for every site on the net, properly one of the most popular extentions out their.

CustomizeGoogle - CustomizeGoogle enhances Google search results (such as directly linking images on google Image search results) and remove text ads.

PDF Download - Allows you to manage PDF documents efficently, you can choose if you wish to download, view in browser or convert to html.

Gmail Notifier - Places a small GMail icon in your status bar that allows you to quickly check your Google E-Mail.

Download Statusbar - View downloads in an auto-hide statusbar.

SessionSaver - SessionSaver restores your browser -exactly- as you left it, every startup, every time.

fireFTP - fireFTP is a cross-platform FTP client for Mozilla Firefox which provides easy and intuitive access to FTP servers (looks similar to WS_FTP)

BugMeNot - Allows you to Bypass Compulsory Web Registration with a simply right click option.

Paste and Go - Lets you paste an URL from the clipboard and directly load it, either via the hotkey Ctrl-Shift-V or the corresponding item in the location bar's context menu.

GreaseMonkey - Allows you to customize the way a webpage displays using small bits of JavaScript. (This is required by CustomizeGoogle)

Back from Holidays

I returned from Las Vegas yesterday after about 24 hours worth of travels both on planes and a 4.5hour bus journey.
Got some excellent photos which I'll add to the gallery when I get time, but for starters heres a photo taken from the Eiffel Tower.

Firefox in the media

I was watching Law & Order: Criminal Intent this evening, in the episode (S4 ep20) their searching for a website and their using Firefox on what looks to be WinXP with some theme.
Nice to see it being used more and more :)
