Firefox Extensions: Your favorite or most useful
Curt:
Thanks a lot, sri - just what the doctor ordered! :up:
Edited:
What extension used to give me Highlight > Open in Reg' Editor ?
- or was it purely a Maxthon feature? :-\
Carol Haynes:
There was a right click extension for 'open in reg editor' for Explorer (and therefore probably for Maxthon too).
See: http://www.petri.co.il/open_in_regedit_in_ie.htm
I tried it eons ago and it worked fine.
There seems to be something similar for Firefox (but I haven't tried it)
see http://www.softpedia.com/get/Tweak/Browser-Tweak/Open-In-RegEdit.shtml
or https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4478
Just tried the Firefox Extension and it seems to work fine.
Curt:
Oh, it was that easy! :-[
- thanks, Carol!

By far my favorite extension is http://www.foxmarks.com/
I have 3 XP & 2 Linux boxes at home, several work machines all running foxmarks, all with several thousand links, always up to date and synchronized using this awesome add-on. I used to use both MyLinkVault (worthless) and Sync2It (problems with synching-lost links) until i stumbled across Foxmarks...I've yet to have any problems with Foxmarks even when they went thru a major server/version upgrade a while back.
I only wish that firefox would improve upon their Bookmarks Manager or make an add-on that allowed for better link management. I find it hard to believe that when i do a text search for one of my links, it finds the link so i know it exists, but it doesn't show you what folder it's currently sitting in. :-\
