SmarterFox: Browse Faster Browse faster by speeding up common tasks. SmarterFox helps you with finding information, visiting your favorite sites, copy & paste, and more.

Search by selecting/highlighting text and then clicking on the pop up bubble

* Google results automatically show up in the Awesomebar/URL bar as you type (faster than going to google.com)
* Easily switch between search engines for a search
* Convert text URLs into clickable links
* Automatically copy on select / paste on middle click / paste on right click (NOT enabled by default)
* Visit bookmarks quickly with keyboard shortcuts using qLauncher
* Adds "related articles" side-pane to Wikipedia

If you don't like any of the above features, you can disable it by going to: Tools -> Smarter Fox

To invoke the qLauncher press Ctrl-Space. If you are using a Mac or Ubiquity, you might need to change the shortcut since Ctrl-Space might already be in use. (Do so by going to Tools -> Smarter Fox). After the qLauncher panel is open simply press the hot key next to the site to open it.

qLauncher's settings integrate right into Firefox's bookmark system so it will be backed up alongside your other bookmarks if you use something like Xmarks. The bookmarks for qLauncher are included in the folder named "qLauncher" on your bookmarks bar. To add a bookmark to qLauncher simply copy it into the folder by dragging and dropping it there. To assign a shortcut key, tag the bookmark with "qlauncher:k" where k is the key you want to use. You do not have to do this however: qLauncher can pick one for you automatically. If you find the bookmark folder obtrusive you can either drag it to the end of your bookmarks toolbar or disable the qLauncher and delete it.

Newest Twitter Worm "Best Video" Is Spreading

If you're a Twitter user who innocently clicked on a link in a tweet saying "Best Video" this weekend, you could be in for an account suspension after it emerged the micro blogging service has been hit by yet another worm attack.

The rogue tweet links to http://juste.ru, which delivers not a video, but a piece of code that appears to be designed to hijack accounts and steal passwords.

Accounts locked down

Twitter has responded by issuing a warning to avoid the tweet or anything involving the URL, saying: "No matter how good that 'best video' looks, don't go to any juste.ru domains. We're aware of the situation and are working on it".

To that end, it has locked down some affected accounts to squash the worm, reporting that they "should be cleaned and restored soon".

Facebook spam ? Beware of another - Social Network News Update

Have you been hit like millions of Facebook users by a new phishing scam that can result in crashing your computers or mobile phones and
steal your passwords? If not, beware, do not open the files ending with ".at" or ".be".

The phishing scam is being run through the spam messages which steals the sensitive information of the Facebook users.

In the attack, the messages are circulated with a subject line of "Hello" and a prompt to check out "areps.at" or other URLs ending in ".at".

The mails with the subject line "Look at This" and links like -- goldbase.be, greenbuddy.be, silvertag.be, picoband.be -- leads to some malicious Web sites, which if visited, could secretly download malware onto computers through a "drive-by download" application.

The URL connectivity, before being blocked directs the visitor to a fake Facebook page and the mail ID and password are stolen as soon as it is logged-in again.

According to the All Facebook blog.Facebook, the password in such cases should be changed immediately and the same message should be sent across to one's Facebook acquaintance.

"Whoever is behind the scam has been steadily amassing a large number of e-mail addresses and passwords over the past few weeks," the blog says.

Though, Facebook spokesman Barry Schnitt said: "The impact of this attack or the previous ones are not widespread and only impacted a tiny fraction of a per cent of users.

"We've been updating our monitoring systems with information gleaned from the previous attacks so that each new attack is detected more quickly," he said.

The site has blocked links to the new phishing sites from being shared on Facebook and has added them to the block lists of the major browsers.

The social networking site is working with partners to have the sites taken down completely, he said adding Facebook is also cleaning up phony messages and wall posts and resetting the passwords of affected users.

"We believe the bad guys here are phishing an account and then trying those credentials on web mail providers," Schnitt said.

So, for example, if a user is compromised on Facebook and has the same login and ID password for their Gmail, the attacker may be able to intercept the Facebook password reset and compromise the account again in the future, he added.

TwitterGadget - Twitter Client - designed to submit status updates to Twitter via your iGoogle homepage or Gmail Account - Twitter Useful Tools

TwitterGadget is a clean, robust, web 2.0 style client for Twitter.com, designed to submit status updates to Twitter via your iGoogle homepage or Gmail Account.

TwitterGadget is completely AJAX based, meaning, at the user-specified refresh interval, only the status update content is refreshed in-line, on the gadget page. This means reduced bandwidth utilization between you and Twitter.com, while providing for a more user-friendly experience.



TwitterGadget enables the user to toggle on/off various display elements such as user thumbnails, timestamps, and post sources. Refresh intervals can be set from 3 to 30 minutes, or manual only.

Additional information about a poster is available, at a glance, by hovering over their thumbnail image. In addition, hovering over a thumbnail provides icons for re-tweeting the user's post, adding or removing their post from your 'favorites' tab, as well as visiting the user's twitter page.
When the status input box is empty, you can issue @ replies by clicking on the username of a poster at the front of the tweet, or a direct message by clicking on their name a second time. A third click clears the status message area.

Clicking the username of another poster at the front of the timeline, once you have populated your status message, will simply append an @+username to the end of your current message, facilitating correspondence with multiple followers. All URLs are hyperlinked in the timeline, and any @+username references, when clicked in the timeline, takes you to the respective user's Twitter page.

Insert symbols, dingbats and emoticons into your tweets using the TwitterGadget pulldown menu, accessible via the down arrow button located in the bottom left hand corner of the status box.

With TwitterGadget, you can automatically shorten URLs, in-line, using Trunc.it.

The popular Greasemonkey Facebook video script is now a full-fledged Firefox addon that lets users download or convert Facebook videos

This addon allows Facebook users to share personal videos with their friends outside of Facebook. Facebook has stated in its Video FAQ that "Users will not be able to export or download videos from Facebook." This adds features that Facebook refuses to implement.

The download, convert video, and customize code links are added to Facebook video pages in an unobtrusive way. Also a box containing the embed code for the video is provided, along with a public link to the video at the bottom of the page. The download link is a direct link to the video file. The convert link leads to Zamzar.com where a user can convert the video to several formats and receive a link in an email to download the converted version. The customize code link opens a dialog to change the resolution of the embed code and/or select the auto-play option. Once the user selects "Update" the embed code in the box is changed to reflect the users preferences and the video will also be replaced so that they can view the immediate result of their changes. Besides on video pages, the links will also be place below videos on walls, feeds, and messages.

Image Block - Image Block adds a toggle button that conditionally blocks/allows loading of images on webpages.

Image Block adds a toggle button that conditionally blocks/allows loading of images on webpages. Blocking images results in faster browsing, especially helpful on handheld devices or slower connections like GSM/GPRS/EDGE dial-up etc.

Recently in a review one user (thanks dellvin!) pointed out that Image Block is quite useful when you visit websites which show dirty and adult advertisements, while also containing useful information. If you are not sure of what you are about to see on a webpage, just block images to avoid possible embarrassment.

It can also be used at work where your boss doesn't allow you to surf the web or social networking websites!! They look very different (hard to see which site you are viewing) with image blocking on.

IMPORTANT: To use this addon on some systems you need do follow these steps after installation. Go to View-> Toolbars -> Customise, from the dialog box drag the Image Block button onto the Navigation toolbar. Now you can use it to toggle image blocking.
