Five most useful FireFox add-ons

sutariya 6 August 2006 20:00:45
1. FlashGot
2. NoScript
3. Fasterfox
4. VideoDownloader
5. Adblock

1. FlashGot, by Giorgio Maone, Round Two

Download one link, selected links or all the links of a page together at the maximum speed with a single click, using the most popular and reliable external download managers for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux and FreeBSD. Supported products are dozens, see http://flashgot.net­ for details. FlashGot offers also a Build Gallery functionality which helps to synthetize full media galleries in one page from serial contents scattered on several pages, for easy and fast "download all".

Download: https://addons.mozi­lla.org/firefox/220/­

2. NoScript, by Giorgio Maone

Extra protection for your Firefox: NoScript allows JavaScript, Java and other executable content only for trusted domains of your choice, e.g. your home-banking web site.
This whitelist based preemptive blocking approach prevents exploitation of security vulnerabilities (known and even unknown!) with no loss of functionality...
Experts do agree: Firefox is really safer with NoScript ;-)­

Download: https://addons.mozi­lla.org/firefox/722/­

3. Fasterfox, by Tony Gentilcore

Performance and network tweaks for Firefox.

Fasterfox allows you to tweak many network and rendering settings such as simultaneous connections, pipelining, cache, DNS cache, and initial paint delay.

Dynamic speed increases can be obtained with the unique prefetching mechanism, which recycles idle bandwidth by silently loading and caching all of the links on the page you are browsing.

A popup blocker for popups initiated by Flash plug-ins is also included.

Download: https://addons.mozi­lla.org/firefox/1269­/

4. VideoDownloader, by Javi Moya

Download videos from Youtube, Google, Metacafe, iFilm, Dailymotion... and other 60+ video sites ! And all embedded objects on a webpage (movies, mp3s, flash, quicktime, etc) ! Directly !

VideoDownloader add a small icon on the status bar at the bottom of your firefox window, and a toolbar button. Just click that and download the video you are watching !

For a example of what this Add-on has to offer, visit the following...

5. Adblock, by The Adblock Crew, Michael McDonald

Once installed, it's a snap to filter elements at their source-address. Just right-click: Adblock: done. Filters use either the wildcard character (*) or full Regular Expression syntax. Hit the status-element and see what has or hasn't been blocked.
