It is quite annoying when each time I open a new tab in Firefox 3.6, the new tab will be opened next to the tab I’m viewing. I don’t like it very much. The new tab supposed to open at the far right of the tab bar like in the previous Firefox versions.
Luckily, I found the solution on how to fix that.
One of my favourite Mozilla Firefox extension is Live PageRank. This extension will automatically check and show the pagerank of the page you are browsing at the lower right conner on your Mozilla Firefox browser.
Previous version does not work in Firefox 3.5. However, the recent upgrade, version 0.9.7 is now supports Firefox 3.5 and Firefox 3.6. I am very happy with the upgrade as this extension is very useful for me to check my blogs pagerank.
Previously I use EditPlus to code my Wordpress themes. The coding process was a lot easier than using Notepad because I can do the undo process up to multiple levels, it supports syntax highlighting and also it will automatically backup the file whenever you click the Save button.
However after I found out about Notepad++, I fall in love with it. Notepad++ is a freeware text editor which I can say, it is the best Notepad replacement that supports several programming languages and also a good competitor to EditPlus. Notepad++ is written in C++ and uses pure Win32 API and STL which ensures a higher execution speed and smaller program size.
After three weeks the release of Wordpress 2.9, the patch version Wordpress 2.9.1 has come out to fix 24 bugs found in Wordpress 2.9.
As some of you may already notice, one of the bugs has affected the scheduled post feature where by the scheduling posts were not working and this was really annoying.
Like for myself, I use this feature almost of the time. But when this bug came in, I had to post my articles manually during recent New Year’s Eve even though at that time I want to hang-out with my friends.
If you are using Wordpress, I really recommend you to upgrade your WordPress to version 2.9.1 either by downloading it from Wordpress download page, or automatically upgrade from the notification link on your Admin Dashboard.
I’m using Internet Download Manager (IDM) to take care all my downloads. Once it finished downloading a file, IDM will automatically call Kaspersky Internet Security (KIS) to start scanning the downloaded file for any viruses or malwares that can harm my computer system.
By default, IDM will not pass the downloaded file to KIS. If you want to do so, you need to configure it from the IDM options menu. Here I’ll show you how:
Echofon (formerly known as Twitterfox) is a great Mozilla Firefox add-on that I think it is a must-have add-on for those who tweets a lot. Echofon can helps you to get your friends updates, post new tweets and get messages directly from your Mozilla Firefox browser.
The interface of the add-on is clean and it sits down at the Firefox status bar quietly when there is no incoming tweets received. However, when there is a new tweet arrived, Echofon will display a notification for 3 seconds (can be customized) at the lower right conner of Firefox and display the counter of unread tweets near the icon.

Firefox 3 using SQLite database to store all information of your website history, cookies and form history. Every websites you have visited, forms that you filled-in will be stored in their respective files.
To view these files or any files with SQLite format, use SQLite Manager, an add-on for Mozilla Firefox. The interface of the add-on is simple and not too complex. Just click the Open icon, and choose the SQLite file that you want to view.
A new version of WordPress 2.9 has been released. The codename for the release is “Carmen” in honour of magical jazz vocalist Carmen McRae. You can either upgrade directly from your Dashboard or download it from WordPress website.
What’s new? Yes, of course that is what you want to know right? Well, there is a Trash where we can restore back deleted comments or posts. Probably if you accidentally deleted a comment, you can restore it back by using Trash.
Another interesting new feature is the Image Editor. Although I surely will not use it much but now you can crop, edit, rotate, flip and scale the images directly from the web.
