moon Posted September 26, 2004 Report Share Posted September 26, 2004 I really like Firefox and I want to get the best out of it. Can anyone list the plugins they use and their benefits ?I currently have just the basic install of Firefox 1.7. , no plugins at all. When I use the 'Get more extensions' option it seems to me ( correct me if I'm wrong :rolleyes: ) that the choice is paltry. Furthermore, I can't download any of them, to check them for malware, as I'm only given the option to install. Also, a lot of the plugins listed require payment, or are trialware.

Winni Posted October 23, 2004 Report Share Posted October 23, 2004 Not a plugin.. But this utility, Flash Movie Extractor Scout can save flash movies, online games and videos from Firefox. It works with Opera :D and Internet Explorer too :lol: It is useful feature 'cause sometime I use IE to view some web-pages that do not work well with Firefox..Cheers,Winni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
