POPSA Free Utility that Really Does Speed Up Firefox
I tested it out on my personal laptop and it worked like a charm. After running SpeedyFox my version, of Firefox definitely loads quicker. However I was unable to assess whether there was any improvement in dealing with browsing history or with cookies - I'm not even sure how I would go about measuring that. But the improvement in loading speed alone more than justifies the use of the product. I should say that my version of Firefox was an excellent candidate for improvement as my profile was very old. Users with newer profiles are unlikely to see the same sort of improvement I experienced. Usage of SpeedyFox couldn't be simpler. The program doesn't require installing so all you need do is download and run the executable. You will then see the following screen. Unless you are using the portable version of Firefox you will normally just accept the default setting for your profile. Then click the " Speed Up My Firefox" button and you're done.

POPS Attack code posted for unpatched Firefox 3.5 flaw July 14th, 2009 Mozilla’s security response team is scrambling to respond to the release of exploit code A zero day exploit (Firefox 3.5 Heap Spray Vulnerability) affecting Mozilla’s latest Firefox release has been published in the wild. Through an error in the processing of JavaScript code in ‘font tags’ malicious attackers could achieve arbitrary code execution and install malware on the affected hosts. There’s no indication of its use on a global scale just yet, however due to the fact that the PoC is now public, it shouldn’t take long before cybercriminals embed it within the diverse exploits set of their web malware exploitation kits, allowing it to scale.

POPSFireFox Addon I don't usually clip this sort of article but I just installed this on FireFox and it's so good that I just had to share it. No, I have no interest in this addon except as a satisfied user and thought I'd pass it along to anyolne else who's been bothered by text and layouts that are just hard to read.

POPSMozilla Firefox Addon- iMacro Script Sharing Script sharing programs like this Firefox addon allow users to share processes rather than content alone. The added value of "teaching a man to fish" makes this an educational as well as an efficiency-increasing medium. Users sharing macros may also experience more similar search results if their personalization settings are enabled, making it easier for people to evaluate the results of a downloaded macro.

POPS Googles Chrome Extensions Coming Soon! So what’s next in the evolution of Chrome and Extensions? Considering the latest Chromium build has Greasemonkey implementation, the infrastructure points listed above are no doubt being fine tuned as we speak. After that is polished, i’d say the next big step forwards will be Chrome users sporting a shiny new Google Toolbar.
