Yep. Right-click the page, and it makes a TinyURL and puts it on the clipboard.

If you're using Adblock, you gotta get the Filterdet.G updater. It updates Adblock so you don't have to. Very sweet.

I like the All-in-One Sidebar because I can open it up and have my bookmarks or downloads displayed on the side, so I can refer to them. It doesn't vanish like the drop-down menus.

CookieCuller lets you protect the cookies you want to keep, and delete the rest. Comes in handy for keeping all my logins safe.

Fitt's Back Button just makes the back button bigger by adding the word "Back" beside it. A bigger target means fewer times clicking the wrong thing.

You have GOT to get NoScript! I don't feel safe surfing without it.

Hi

I use Maxthon 2 (RC1) reading through the thread I'm the odd one out ! "apart from Nick89 who uses Torpark" (which is an IP mixer), i have used Fire Fox "FF" but compared to Maxthon i found FF slow ? I have used many browsers over say the last six years and up to date i find Maxthon is the best for me, its a tabbed browser highly customisable, has a gallery of skins and 100s of plug-ins "and 100s is not an exaggeration" one brilliant fetcher is a timeable auto refresh for each tab open and can be configured to many self choose Keyboard commands and Mouse gestures, all in all Maxthon gives me all i need in a very clever and colourful browser

Read More / Download > Maxthon

Screen shot of my Maxthon "click image to zoom"

Have to agree with Cyber on this Maxthon works brilliant with XP Black and its scripting engine is very good
