"DownThemAll!" extension is one I use often. If I'm looking at a photo gallery, I can pull down every image on the page all at once.<div><br></div><div>I also use "Take me to URL" for those times when I web site is listed, but not href/linked.

I can't think of it - it might be longURL, but the one that shows the actual URL of the site in bold and can be set to give other details.<br>
<br>
Yeah, NoScript and some of the others that protect your privacy can get a little unwieldy.<br>

Subject: [Cialug] Firefox extensions for novice users<br>
<br>
What Firefox extensions do you folks recommend to help novice Linux<br>
users?<br>
<br>
I install AdBlock+ on every Firefox installation that I use, but most of<br>
the other extensions that I use are a bit overly technical for the<br>
average person. For example, as much as I rely on NoScript, I wouldn't<br>
even consider training a novice user to use such a thing.<br>
<br>
I'm installing AdBlock+, LongURL and WebOfTrust. I'm considering<br>
CookieSafe and BetterPrivacy, but think they might be a bit overly<br>
complex.<br>
<br>
Are there any favorites out there that I should be considering?<br>
<br>
<br>
