Just found this useful add-on for Firefox if you want to read rss feeds and have found that Brief doesn't work with version 3 of Firefox, this one does. It's available here: - RSS Ticker (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2325)
Excellent addon - thanks
Great link Ray. :thumb:
NP :thumb:
Thanks, I'll check this out. :thumb:
Duplicate a tab,
Hold CTRL and click and hold on a tab, now drag to somewhere else on the tab bar.
Instant duplicate tab.
Aparently doesn't work on Macs though.
Great tip, thanks! :karmic: But I'll have to give it to you later.
Now that's a great tip - I was wondering whether something like that existed. :thumb:

Firegestures (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/search?q=firegestures&cat=all)
Fully customisable, innovative mouse gestures extension for firefox. Been using it for a couple of days and can feel the benefit of not having to move the mouse as much. For those with large monitors it's a god send.
Give it a try, once you memorize the mappings (remember you can customise them) surfing the net becomes easier and more intuitive.
A top extension imo.
I'll have to take a look, thanks, Vit. :thumb:
Did you get to try it out Rik?
Not yet, Vit, it's been a hectic weekend so far. I will, though.
I've just moved over to FF3 in the last couple of days at work and home, and I've found some great addons I wasn't aware of. The rest of you have probably been using these for ages, but just in case you were in the dark like me, I found Google Preview and Webmail notifier :thumb:
I'm really liking FF3 by the way :)
I am another recent covert to FF3 from IE7. Very much better / faster then IE7. The only problem is there to many add ons to search through. :D
The gmail one is very good....

Too true - I have a browse every now and then, but most I use I've either found quite by chance, or someone has told me about them. :)
Might be of interest if anyone has PC Tools Spyware Doctor the latest Version Here (http://fileforum.betanews.com/detail/Spyware_Doctor/1087491686/1) now scans FF3 for spyware.
In the past it did not.
Thanks, Rich. :)
A new update toFirefox3 is out. Ver 3.02. Fixes problems listed Here (http://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/firefox30.html#firefox3.0.2).
The update can be found from the Help Menu and use check for updates...
Thanks, Rich. :thumb:
Firefox 3.03 has now been released (fixes a password bug in 3.02).
How long to the next one do you think? Thanks. :thumb:
Probably @3.45 ;D
My feeling too, Steve. ;D
3.0.4 has now been released, which fixes a bug introduced by 3.0.3 earlier today, which fixed a bug introduced by 3.0.2 a few days ago.
:legpull:
The trouble is, it's believable. :(
Tell me about it!
how long do you think before most of the add ons are updated too. I tried FF3 a while back and it didnt work too well, a lot of my add ons werent compatable :( went back to v2

Firefox 2 has a limited life span, 17th of December it will be desupported, so most should be catching up, try googling their compatibility
De-supported. Is that like removing corsets? :o

Erm...... :-*
* 17-dec-2008: Firefox2 will be formally de-supported.
I didnt make the word up gov

I'm taking my truss off later and will, as a result, be formally de-supported and fully undone. ;D

Do the wings get in the way?
They do tickle...
Rarely that. :whistle:
Quick response on the bug fixes by the Mozilla devs. I suppose thats better than having to wait a month a la IE.
Thanks for the tip :)

If it's CTRL drag on a PC try CMD drag or APPLE drag on the mac :)
Cheers,

Install Mr Tech Local Toolkit (http://www.mrtech.com/extensions/toolkit.xpi), then use it's "make all compatible" option.
hahahaha firefox prevented this site (www.idnet.co.uk) from asking you to install software on your computer
We don't ask for any software installation beyond an optional login cookie, Baz.
sorry should have said it was when clicking the link from Scook94 above my post
Ah... :)

There should be a button on the top RHS that says "Allow". Did that not work?
