Firefox Add-ons

[Platinum]

Anyone use any firefox add-ons? if so which? do you like them?

Personally I use Mouse Gestures. It's great if you're lazy but takes some getting used to. I'm still getting used to it.

Basically, you right click and move your mouse in certain movements and it does something, like go to the next tab if you go up and to the right, previous tab if you right click and go up and to the left. new tab if you right click and go up.

Basically you hold the right click and make the movement... it's pretty cool

With AdBlock how do you permanently block ads? I'm just testing it with computer forum, and the ad at the top always appears when I go to different forums here. Is there a way to block it permanently?

You can right click on the ad and click block, but it takes a lot of blocking to actually remove all the ads from a site such as this, since they rotate them often.

I use AdBlock, ForecastFox, Foxmarks, and PDF Download

That will be the google adsense advert. Not sure whether I'm allowed to tell you as they WANT people to see the advert but if you google it you'll find the answer.

The "dictionary" shows up by putting red underlines beneath anything you misspell when you type. For example, in forum response boxes.

Quite right. The dictionary add-on AFAIK is what regularly updates the list of misspelled words.
