Firefox users, you NEED this extension!

http://www.extensionsmirror.nl/index.php?showtopic=2796

It lets you enlarge any textbox, like the reply screen here on FT, just put your mouse in the bottom, and drag to make it larger (or smaller!!!)

Just one more reason why Firefox is the best browser out there.

How about a better pop up blocker extension. The pop up blocker got way worse on 1.0+ as everyone has already mentioned.

I don't want to have to add another 3rd party program.

Use the ....... extension with Filterset.G: http://www.pierceive.com/

Just check once in a while to be sure you have the latest filter set. I can't even remember the last time I've gotten an unwanted popup in Firefox.

Is anyone curious why this isn't listed on the 'official' Mozilla Update site?

I am - especially since this was last updated mid-2004.

Here's another great extension. It remembers all of your open tabs (and their respective histories) when you close Firefox, so that when you re-open, "voila!". Right back where you started from.
