Found this today: Winfox
Seems really good so far I am running the X64 build.
If you have Windows 7 and Mozilla Firefox 3.1 beta (or the upcoming Firefox 3.5), then you should know about Winfox. Winfox allows you to use those new super cool taskbar features built-in to the Jumplists with Firefox. I’m sure you know how Internet Explorer in Windows 7 lets you access your frequently used sites and tasks with just a right click of the taskbar, right? With Winfox, you can do the same with Firefox. Pin frequently used sites, get your top visited sites, and easy access to launching Firefox from the taskbar. You can get the number of open tabs and easily view your download progress straight from the taskbar. You can even drag a page from your favorites or navigation toolbar (by dragging the favicon) within Firefox to pin it to the taskbar! With Winfox, Windows 7 just got more personal for Firefox.
Requirements:
Note: Winfox must be running to update your top sites. Firefox extension installation required to get tab count and progress bar overlays.
- Windows 7 (32 bit or 64 bit, run the extractor based on your processor architecture)
- At least Mozilla Firefox 3.0
Tips: Pin Winfox to your taskbar to utilize easy launch and access to your Firefox Jumplist.
If you have a suggestion or bug to report, please leave a comment on this post. Thanks!
