10 Must-Know Firefox Tips

From HTTPS-only mode to keywords for faster searching, even if you only follow some of these ideas, you’ll find your Firefox open-source browser experience to be much improved.

Scott Matteson, writing for TechRepublic Premium, presents 10 tips for the Firefox browser.

    Featured text from the guide:

    9. ENABLE HTTPS-ONLY MODE

    You should also enable HTTPS-Only Mode. What this does is warn you if a site you’re visiting uses the less secure HTTP protocol rather than the more secure HTTPS protocol. When you receive that warning, you can decide if you want to continue on that site or not. Although this might seem like a hassle at first because it requires an extra click for those sites not using HTTPS, it’s always better to be safe than sorry.

    Besides, if you’re warned of a site that doesn’t use HTTPS, you can always choose to continue to the address anyway. It’s simply good to be informed that what you’re about to visit is using the less secure HTTP protocol.
