Great Firefox extension: Read it Later
I just had to share because I'm using this so much...

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/7661

Lets you create an easy to access, temporary list of urls for later reading but not necessarily keeping. Great for marking articles and news stories for later reading.

1. thanks for the tip!
I'm using it now. I used to have this but could not remember the name when I reinstalled everything here. Thanks for jarring my memory.

3. Standard solution: remove all extensions and add them back one by one.
Every time I've had a problem with Firefox, there is a problem with an extension not being 'ready' for the updated version.

I've forgotten all of the extensions which I no longer use, but I'll probably re-visit the extension list again, one day. Some extensions are EXTREME memory / CPU hogs and are unstable with certain pages, especially those extensions which web designers use which play around with javascript etc.

In the future, for help, you should say more about your O/S, platform, etc.

For example, I run Firefox on Linux, but also Windows 2000 and Windows XP and Windows Vista. That's just ME (I run 4 PCs plus a notebook). Mac users can run it, although they probably use Safari.

So next time you have a problem, please tell us more.
