Firefox 3 configuration steps
Firefox Add-ons
Go Tools -> Add-ons -> Get Add-ons -> then search for and install 3 add-ons:
- Tax mix plus
- Flashblock
- Foxmarks
Firefox Tweaks
- Don't want Firefox to close when pressing ctrl-w on the last tab: Tools -> tab mix plus options -> events -> tab closing -> tick "do not close window when closing last tab by hotkey".
- Firefox: enable printing in print preview mode in Linux: about:config -> toggle "printWhileInPrintPreview" to "true".
- Stop animated GIFs in Firefox: about:config -> image.animation_mode -> change to "none"
- Firefox: Fix the stupid behavior of overwriting current tabs when opening new tabs: about:config -> browser.tabs.loadFolderAndReplace -> toggle to "true".
- To get autocomplete for the web address, go: about:config -> browser.urlbar.autoFill -> toggle to "true" -> restart FF.
- Perform a sync using Foxmarks wizard, and for the initial setup keep the bookmarks on the server, and overwrite those on this computer.
- File -> Page setup ... -> Paper size = "A4", and orientation = "Portrait".
