“My guess is that this one (too) only works on Firefox 2 and above, which I don’t have due to its many irritant bugs.”

^^ & it hasn’t stopped since then, unfortunately; hopefully 1 of these days, we’ll get the good ol’ browser back.

Worked for me. Be sure to use the filter at the top of the page and not the ctrl _ F or command + f to search.

Another hint that does not work on Firefox 1.5+ My guess is that this one (too) only works on Firefox 2 and above, which I don’t have due to its many irritant bugs. It would be nice if these “how-tos” mentioned which versions they worked on… it would save me time, I know that.

Don’t have my MAC at work, but I know or at least am pretty sure the Win32 version of Firefox has this enabled by default. Or at least the 2.0 fork does. Pretty sure the OS X version should too…
