Very creepy.. I know…

Here is what you need to do:

1) Open firefox and type “about:config” in the URL. Click on “I will be careful…” button.

2) Now on the next page in the search bar type “babylon” and press enter.

3) Right click on each of the entry and just select “reset” from the option. Thats it.

Restrat your browser and thats it.

Cheers!

Do you ever need to open multiple pages each time you start your browser? I do. I need twitter+facebook+ some project pages+ engadget :D

If its yes for you then this should help.

Opening multiple pages on Firefox

Open Firefox –> General –> Homepage Box –> Enter multiple URLs with PIPEs within. Thats it ;)

http://facebook.com/|http://classictutorials.com|http://twitter.com/|http://localhost:8081

Opening multiple pages on Chrome

For chrome its out of box. But in case if you have not noticed you can do the following.

Open chrome –> Go to Preferences –> Select Open the following pages from on Startup –> Add your pages. Thats it.

Cheers!

Plugins will get disabled by itself and even you wont be able to install any new incompatible plugins.

There are few hacks you can do to enable it. Like editing the plugin XPI file with a notepad. Or enable compatible through about:config for each plugin. But this is the easiest way. Just install the following plugin. Restart your browser and done.

PLUGIN: Compatibility Reporter

Just found out this plugin from Firefox plugin gallery. Am really impressed. This is what i was looking for. No need to install themes. This is all in one. This is called “Personas“. Click on this to install.

Personas are lightweight, easy-to-install and easy-to-change “skins” for your Firefox web browser.

 To access the gallery here is the link : http://www.getpersonas.com/gallery/All/Popular

If Personas in already installed then just mouse hover over the gallery image to get a real preview of the theme. This is so dynamic.. I am loving it

So out of the controversy and frustration this weekend i was trying to make my Firefox browser look like Google Chrome and if you see the screen shots you will see i was almost 97.223344% to achieve my goal. Now don’t ask me what happened to 2.776656%.You need to find out yourself.
Hint: Fatty Firefox will never stop eating RAM.

What did i achieved out of this customization?
Firefox looks very neat N clean. Its a bit light now.The visible area has increased so much. Its more than Chrome now. The look is real sexy.

Compare the screen shots:
1st one is Google Chrome and the 2nd one is Firefox. Check out the more display area in firefox. Check the red arrow at Firefox screen shot.

Ok to customize here are the things you need:
1)Change Icon size:

Right click beside the menu tool bar and select “Use small Icon” from the “Customize Toolbar” option.

2) Chromifox Basic Theme:

Url:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/8782

3) Hide menu:

Url:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4762

Install both the plugins and restart and see the change. Did you like it? You have a better idea? Please share with every one.
