Tried this, this morning and I've gotta say, I am impressed! I hated having to open IE every time I wanted to do things like check WAG, hit Windows Update, run sites that only did well in IE, etc. so when I saw this extension I tried it out. It's *great*! You can open a tab with IE rendering immediately. It even lets you run Windows Update in the tab! Very hip. Give it a shot, if you're a FireFox user...

Another quality add on: Webmail Notifier.

Will put a small envelope in the bottom, right hand corner of FF, and will check your web-based email accounts and not only tell you if you have new mail, but also take you straight to your inbox in *one* click. Though I've got my WAG account, I still use a secondary Yahoo account for other things...and it's great to not alway have to hit the Yahoo page just to check to see if anything is there or not...

For those that use stuff like RapidShare, etc. you *NEED* to watch the demo video for this FF extension. Dude, I about passed out...it's *that* cool!

I've been having issues with it crapping out on me, and then having RapidShare tell me said file was no longer available. Disabling the extension, then going back and actually going through the process yielded the download. I am guessing RapidShare found out about it and put at stop to it by simply not giving you the file if you're using SkipScreen. I've uninstalled it across all of my PCs. What a shame too, it really was a cool tool...

I just found this add on and it's awesome. I told a client today that embedded flash video was not downloadable, at least not easily. But this program, along with conversion helper from the same group, makes it easy to not only snag flv video from any website, but also convert it to the format of your choice in the download process. Sweet!
