Firefox is an incredibly versatile and flexible tool that offers a lot of possibilities for individual customization. An integral part of browsing the internet is collecting URLs or favorites, better known as bookmarks within the Mozilla browser family. The integrated Firefox bookmarks however are rarely used to their full potential. Here is a selection of tools that will help you get quick and easy access to your most important bookmarks. Bookmarks Toolbar The Bookmarks Toolbar provides instant access to a small collection of your most favorite and most visited websites. You can even add folders with bookmarks to this toolbar. However, with just text, the Bookmarks Toolbar is rather bleak. You can easily spruce it up and save a ton of space by installing the Smart Bookmarks Bar extension, which replaces the text with the site’s favicon. Further settings are up to you. I love the Bookmarks Toolbar, but I notoriously run out of space and have... details >>>

I have a huge problem with web designers: I am seldom satisfied with what I am offered and can’t express in words what I actually want. Being an Internet marketer I have to launch new sites quite often, so naturally I frequently come across the problem. So what to do? I can’t afford the time to learn web design and turn into a professional web developer. Besides, I can’t do everything by myself. Luckily, I’ve recently come across a cool web development tool that allows me to tweak CSS on-the-fly and come up with the ultimate version I feel comfortable with. The tool is a FireFox addon called FireBug and it is so cool that many web developers use FireFox for the only reason that it can be extended with FireBug. It’s an ultimate Firefox addon for web developers. So in this post I am sharing my amateur’s tricks of creating a web site design with FireBug. Introduction: Navigate to the site template you want to edit and activate Firebug: use... details >>>

These days when we pay our bills, manage our bank accounts, store sensitive data in the cloud and frequently buy stuff online you should be more careful about keeping your computer secure then ever before. Below, I would like to share my favorite essential security downloads that have helped me keep my system secure over the last 2-3 years. Check them out and tell us what you think in comments. 1. AVG Anti-Virus (Windows) AVG is a free anti-virus program, also a really good one. In the past I have tried Norton, Kaspersky, NOD 32 and several others but finally settled on AVG. It’s been my preferred anti-virus program for the last couple of years. MakeUseOf readers seem to agree as well. We have already reviewed the AVG on MakeUseOf before so if you want to know all the details check out Mark’s AVG review here. To get an idea here are some of the things you get with AVG: * real time virus checking * automatic daily updates *... details >>>

I am a download junkie. I have to schedule downloads to start late at night (because of the Internet Plan). So, naturally I am a huge fan of any auto shutdown software that has the ability to shutdown the computer once the downloads are complete. Most download managers have it, µtorrent has it and they are perfect for my need. There has always been a great void in this setup due to Firefox. Many a time, I have files downloading in Firefox but no way to auto-shutdown the computer. Some time back, I hacked together an auto script that would sit there and wait for the Firefox’s ‘Downloads finished’ notification to appear, it would then close Firefox and shutdown the computer. Lame I know, but it did the trick. Recently, however, I found an excellent addon that lets you do schedule auto shutdowns in Firefox and a whole lot more, its (aptly) called Auto-Shutdown. The addon is auto shutdown software that provides you with a number of options to perform precisely... details >>>
