Firefox Plugins

Well I decided that I will share with everyone and at the same time document for myself the plug-ins that I use for Firefox and what they do.

AddBlock Plus – This plug-in is useful mostly on Linux version of Firefox for me as for the Windows end I use my firewall [Outpost Firewall] to block all associated add pages with the words in it. This plug-in is a wonderful thing for those people that do not have outpost firewall or use Linux.

Deepest Sender – a very nice plug-in that open’s up a window that you can blog from, and lets you do formating and posting for various blogs.  I am using it now in fact!  The only bad thing about it, which I have to submit to them and I have on my To Do List is no multiple categories.

Download Embedded – For that time that you really want to go grab the embedded graphic, movie, sound, etc., this is is the plug-in that gets it done.

Download Status bar – Simple bar that opens up downloaded boxes and the status of download instead of a separate download window.

IETab – For those times that you must use IE, there is no point in opening a separate window, this plug-in lets you open up pages inside Firefox Tab.

Tab Effect – Want some WOW factor? This plug-in just creates a rotating cube inside the browser. While not the same as XGL in Linux it is a nice little effect that runs in any Firefox environment. Now if only XGL ran on windows!

There are a few other plug-ins that I use from Google, but they take up their own posts later on!
