Firefox Tricks - Dopamino - 09-29-2007 Flickr has a really annoying protection against downloading pictures from their site using the right click menu of your browser. They streched a 1?1 transparent pic over the picture you would like to download, so if you right click on the picture, you actually right click on the transparent overlay. If youre using Firefox, just open your userContent.css (create the file if it doesnt exist yet) file in your Mozilla chrome directory (windows: c:\Documents n Settings\$USER\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\$profile_name\chrome) and add this line: img[src*=spaceball.gif] {display: none !important;} and the protection is gone:P Firefox Tricks - DBoy1612 - 09-29-2007 I think I wrote a page long list on Firefox Extentions... Might go looking for it later. This one is my favourite; http://www.softpedia.com/get/Tweak/Browser.../FireTune.shtml As Fasterfox will get you banned from almost every single site on the internet (including Disco), this is the next best thing.

Hey, I use it and nothing happened to be honest. Google developed software that detects users who are using Fasterfox. Why? Because Fasterfox takes up un needed bandwidth from websites. It caches webpages before you load them so everything looks like its moving fast... But its really not. Google usually notifys users of this condition when you load their website (unless they removed it). The Discoverygc.com web hoster is also running the software, because I know a few who got banned automatically because of it. Firefox Tricks - Dopamino - 09-29-2007 firetune doesn't speed up anything, it just changes settings for you in firefox so that certain things will load faster. I've already changed all of those settings manually, but it might be good for novices to firefox. |
