firefox extensions

The Firefox web browser can be extended with so called add-ons or extensions. This little computer programs add functionality to the web browser and are one of the major reasons for the success of Firefox.

There are Firefox extensions to download videos, print websites, aid web developers, increase the security or help the user remember passwords or notes.

Mozilla is maintaining a Firefox add-on repository on their website where most of the add-ons that have been created for the web browser are published.

Not all Add-ons are compatible with all versions of Firefox and it is recommended to check if the add-on is compatible before trying to install it.

You'll find bloggers talking about Firefox extensions at sites like the FFExtension's Guru and Connected Internet.
