Hacking Firefox by Mel Reyes
They dreamed of a better browser...and before you could say 'explore no more', Firefox was born. But already you want more. Tighter security, greater functionality. A custom installation for Linux. Maybe even that unique extension you've always dreamed of creating. Well, if you want to tweak the Fox, here are over 400 pages of ways to do it. From hacking profile settings to cracking links and cleaning out the cookie jar, this is the stuff that puts you in control. This book presents step-by-step instructions for these hacks and dozens more. It discusses about: settings, content, and extension hacks; hacking the interface and themes; performance boosters; anti-phishing and security hacks; tool bar and status bar tweaks; navigation, download, and search hacks; hacks for common plugins; and, extension and theme creation.
