IE Tab. There are still some websites out there that just won't display properly unless using Internet Explorer. IE Tab allows you to view "IE websites" in Firefox. In my opinion, this is a very vital add-on.

I'm trying to abandon IE all together. With Firefox and IE tab, I can visit 99.9% of all the websites out there. The 1 and only time I use Internet Explorer is when I'm using Windows Updates.

the only time I ever use IE is upon first boot after install where I go straight to mozilla and download firefox ;)

 

since I only do critical updates for Windows, I never have to go to Windows Update for myself, but usually have to for customers for some reason or another.

 

I tend to keepy my firefox as default as possible. All those plugins can get confused with one another as well as bloat up the memory load (firefox is already pretty good at that without plugins).

 

death to IE!

 

all praise Firefox! (or whatever your favorite non-MS browser is lol)

 

That No-Script plugin though, that's a godsend, but disturbing in how many non-essential adware/crap links are really imbedded in a website's pages.

 

Go to diy-street.com or here in the forums it only wants to block a couple of banners or a lot of banners in everyone's sigs...but go to other sites and holy jeez its like 200 different links/scripts from advertising that are getting blocked...
