New Firefox Beta 2.0b2
« on: September 01, 2006, 08:08:21 PM »
Hi forum friends,

Just testing the new version of Mozilla Firefox Beta2, all the add-ons are not ready for it, but the most essential are on board like Adblock + Filter G updater, McAfeeSiteAdvisor, Cookiesafe, NoScript, Searchwith, to mention a few. Others will soon be updated. You can run it alongside the normal version of FF, or Flock, and it will import your profile and settings. For the mo just meant for testing purposes, but with anti phishing protection on board. You hear from me, how I fare. Spell checker built in this one.

Hi drhayden1,

Thank you, my friend, I try it on some of my critical extensions like the DrWeb hyperlink pre-scanner add-on, and several more.
There was a similar drag and drop tool for Flock, this created the first NukeAnything extension from FF to Flock, now they have a carver on board to adopt on the fly. We are keeping each other mutually informed what is nice. Did you already downloaded and tried out the nifty UK privacy browser Browzar?
