Firefox add-ons

[#1]

Can I suggest people try InfoLister which will produce BBcode of all you extensions with complete descriptions (and clickable links to the add-ins where it can):
Here's my list:
Extensions (enabled: 17, disabled: 1; total: 18)

I think "fasterfox" was one that appeared on Slashdot as an extension to avoid 🙂  Since I have a PAYG account, it would cost me too much cash!

The Enhanced Prefetch feature is the culprit and should be turned off as it does really nasty things. The rest of it is fine.
N.B. Anyone running websites should put the following in their robots.txt file (irrespective of whether they use fasterfox themselves):

User-agent: Fasterfox
Disallow: /

Ah yes, Pre-Fetching - an easy way to delete things from many badly-written websites.
