Tool to Increase speed of Firefox browser Mozilla Firefox is preferably the most popular and best internet browser worldwide. The main problem with Firefox is its long start-up time and high memory consumption. So, I've found an amazing tool which fixes this problem easily. SpeedyFox is a free tool which aims to speed up your Firefox. After optimizing Firefox with this tool, you will get up to 3 times faster startup speed, browsing history will become faster, and performing operations with cookies will be quicker than before. SpeedyFox increases speed by compacting the fragmented databases without loosing any data. It automatically detects your Firefox's default profile. To use it , select your profile and click the Speed Up My Firefox button. The whole optimization process is safe as it does not effect your history, bookmarks, passwords, etc.

According to my own blog statistics, out of every 500 page impressions at least 50 impressions belong to internal blog search. In case you want to display the search box in the Header region, just like BloggerStop, follow these instructions: Log in to Blogger -> Layout -> Edit HTML and mark the ' Expand Widget Templates ' box. Now find (CTRL+F) this: #header { ..... ..... ..... } And immediately BELOW/AFTER it, paste this code: #header .searchbox { text-align:$endSide; // $endSide = Right & $startSide = Left margin: 25px; // Distance from right or left side } Now search these lines: <div class=...
