Awesome and really easy to use.

For those who don't want to see avatars on this forum, then that's an easy way to do it....

Just install the nightly build verson from:
http://adblock.mozdev.org/dev.html

And here's an essential Firefox theme for Dave:

Pimpzilla (http://people.zeelandnet.nl/marco/pimpzilla/)

There's now an automatic updater plugin that feeds the adblock plugin. Very nice.

Also brilliant is the Wizz RSS reader (http://www.wizzcomputers.com/Welcome.php) - it's now replaced my old RSS reader as it's nice having it fully integrated with Firefox

I don't think the network tweaks are a great idea - I've tried them and they made no noticable difference, and if everyone used them it would do the web no favours by overloading servers, etc.

I just use the download manager tweak and all downloads open in a new tab.

Last, and maybe also least, is a gmail notifier:

This is quite good, is there one for hotmail?

Just found 'view' - 'page style' in Firefox. Also available from a small pen holding hand logo in the bottom right hand corner.  Looks like it only works on PHP pages. Bubba are those styles defined by the site or by firefox?

hmmm. not sure - I guess the site must define something but never come across this before.

do you have an example of a site that has several styles?

also, I don't get no pen icon...
