haha the funny thing is that i never downloaded the original extention, but just the other day i noticed that i had searched ebay by accident and im like wthell? how did my google bar change to ebay, then i looked at it and saw all of the other search features and i thought wow where did that come from!
anyways i love it and i noticed the investopedia one in there too...i love firefox its by far the best and most customizeable browser ive ever seen.
btw it has nothing to do with investing, but the "stumbleupon" extension is pretty rad. |

if you guys really wanna unleash firefox, go to google and lookup the open source variables that you are able to change...
just to give you a preview, type in about:config and go down to where it says network.http.blahblah
you're able to change the amount of connections you have open to a website, display rate, etc, its really amazing when you change these options and notice the difference of page load time |

Yeah, and really piss of a bunch of webmasters too.  If you run a small site, with a limited amount of cpu on a shared server, a couple of firefox folks that have cranked up the number of connections can literally crash your account. I've heard of some folks on phpbb.com (the site where the board software running this forum came from) talk about banning firefox from their sites just because they can't tell if the particular user is using that feature or not.
What can you say... for every plus there's a minus. In this case, it should not hurt someone with a large site (for example microsoft or ebay or google) but for someone with a small site it could be serious. Just something to think about. |

Is it possible to use with Opera browser.
How many of you are using Opera anyway? I think the best and faster browser right now. I love it |
