i have faster fox. what does ui tweaker do. and also tab preview. thanks.
 
UI Tweaker lets you change how things work, like the google search, can be only the icon untill mouse over, and things like that, check it out. Tab preview alows you to see what u have on one tab with a mouse over.
 
I tried:

very nice! especially FireFTP.

I only have one question for Bman, when I enter lets say ftp://192.168.0.150 (local FTP server). It prompts for a username and password, I enter my login, it goes to FireFTP but then tries to login as anonymous, can't it use the login I just provided? That would make this perfect!
 
I stoped using the program, cause I don't need it anymore. There should be an option in the settings for it, to change what it uses automaticly.
 
I think the web developer extension and the netcraft anti phishing ones are pretty impressive

That's kinda cool, but you can't remove any of the options, plus I don't really need it. Thanks, still cool
 
Ya, I wish you could hide it. The prefbar extension can be hidden by pressing F8 or under Views. A hide feature for Web Developer would make it much better.

I still have it linked just in case.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
