A related resource to keep in mind
FYI:
Mozillazine is not a Web site I've used much, having seen it years ago, but not having needed to check it until a couple of weeks ago; when I suddenly could no longer send e-mails longer than a few lines long, couldn't make website posts more than a few lines long, and couldn't succeed in creating user accounts at either TSA or Google, for gmail. (After nearly two weeks of trying to find a solution on the Web, for I was able to surf and just couldn't post, I came across some information on TCP optimization that told me that doing this might work, and downloading and running TCP Optimizer, the free version, seems to have resolved the problem I was having.) It looks like a very good resource. There's the Knowledge Base, which evidently provides plenty of useful information in a well organized or categorized index (and sub-indexes). And there's also the forums. Re. Firefox add-ons, aka extensions, the following page for "Problematic extensions" may possibly be of interest to people discussing or exchanging in this TSA discussion forum or thread. http://kb.mozillazine.org/Problematic_extensions One example is to NOT use any versions of Flashblock when using Noscript, which permits the user to decide whether or not to allow Flash images (whatever) anyway. Another example is to simply NOT use Fasterfox, because version 1.0.x "Hangs or slows down Firefox", and changes made with or by all versions "can interfere with Web site access and persist after it is uninstalled". There are plenty of other problematic add-ons specified in the table in the above Mozillazine page. Sometimes it's only a version (or subset of versions) of an add-on that's problematic, but many of the extensions specified are problematic for [all] versions. As of right now, the Web page was last modified Sept. 14th, so it's very current. The above is from the "Category:Extensions (Firefox)" index, which is linked in the above page (near the top and bottom). Another resource, among evidently many, I've been learning, is the following page's index. "Other Firefox Support", http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/...mode=inproduct TSA forums is a good place to discuss about Firefox, etcetera, since TSA is about FREE software, but I figured that adding the above information might be useful to Firefox newbies reading this post. And there's a lot more than only help for FF (or FFx) add-ons in the above websites. Another add-on example from a link I just came across a few minutes ago (after Mozilla.com's index included Mozillalinks.org, which I thought worth taking a quick peak at) is explained in the following very short article. "Vacuum Firefox databases for better performance, now with no restart", August 22, 2009 http://mozillalinks.org/wp/2009/08/v...ith-no-restart That very short article says that the vacuum action can be done by either running the command specified in the article in the Firefox Error Console, or by using and running a Firefox extension. It also says that there's a plan to make this vacuum operation a default FF or FFx feature. My Places file perhaps didn't need any serious vacuuming, but there were no problems in running the command around ten minutes ago. |
