Product Description

Product Description

Firefox For Dummies gives you the inside scoop on the exciting new browser from the Web wizard that got it started. The book′s author, Blake Ross, began developing Firefox as a teenager. Once available to the world, the simple and powerful tool was an instant hit claiming a sizable share of the Web browser market with over 140 million downloads.
In this book Blake not only gives you the lowdown on how to use Firefox for safe Web searching, but he also shares his insight into how the product came to life. It′s a combination of practical tech insight and a good story that is rare in computer books.
Topics covered include downloading and installing Firefox, creating a home page, searching with Google, creating customized themes and toolbars, using tabbed browsing, downloading and saving files, maintaining security and privacy, eliminating annoying popups, and adding Firefox extensions.

From the Inside Flap

Firefox is a lot like a For Dummies book — designed to make things easier for the rest of us. Now, one of the guys who invented it shows you how to use the browser made for people, not programmers. This book shows how you can view multiple Web pages at one time, how you can easily move your favorite links and bookmarks from your old browser into Firefox, how Firefox keeps you safe online, and much more.

Discover how to
* Acquire and install Firefox
* Make the transition from another browser

5.0 out of 5 stars Firefox for Dummies a first time user, 13 Mar 2009

By	Jim Seaside (UK) - See all my reviews

The Author, Blake Ross, describes the Firefox web browser in a clear, helpful style.
As one of the original developers of the program, he is able to explain how the features work and also why they were presented in that way. He includes an interesting history of how Firefox was started as a free alternative to Microsoft's
Internet explorer.
A beginner on Firefox will find in the book an good introduction to organizing
bookmarks (called favorites by Microsoft). Although Firefox is compact and fast there is a section on downloading extensions (extra programs) to customize it for each user. The book covers every aspect of Firefox as well as a section on avoiding hackers and has two concise Appendices on the menus and Keyboard shortcuts.
