[mhvlug] Firefox Plugins

[Joseph Apuzzo]

Here are my "must have" firefox plugins:

1) adblock => must have stops ads from even getting into your browser let
alone web page desplay
2) Adblock Filerset.G Updater => this will get content lists from the net
for adblock to use go to http://easylist.adblockplus.org/ to add the lists
you want!
3) NoScript => for the "tin foil hat" crowd, stops ALL web page scripts and
then you can slectivly allow ( just like a firewall for the browser ). This
one really lets you be stealty
4) SageToo => RSS reader that is very slick, useing my XML file as a filter
it will allow you to read RSS and Atom feeds like a vurtual newspaper!
Save the following to a css file like sage.css and then tell the sage plugin
to use it as the filter. Point sage to http://planet.mhvlug.org/ or any
other feed and have fun!
Sage also works great for pobcast feeds and also torrent feeds, it does it
all!

5) If you like the tab interface, then try "tab mix plus" it compleats the
Tab functionality that is missing.
