7 Ways to Filter Web using FireFox

firefox-logo-pngFireFox comes with very useful and handy features that makes your surfing on the web not only faster but a lot safer as well. Despite that there are some pages or information that passes through FireFox un-noticed, which can result in lost/theft of confidential data and files.

However, FireFox has a good variety of add-ons that enables you to filter, block or even check malicious information that may pass through otherwise. In this post we’ll discuss 7 ways to filter harmful content by applying Web filters.

1. FoxFilter 5.7

FoxFilter is a personal content filter that helps prevent stumbling onto inappropriate content and block access to user-specified content and Web sites.

2. CookieSafe

This extension will allow you to easily control cookie permissions. It will appear on your status bar. Just click on the icon to allow, block, or temporarily allow the site to set cookies.

3. Adblock Plus

Ever been annoyed by all those ads and banners on the internet that often take longer to download than everything else on the page? Install this add-on and get rid of all sorts of nasty ads. Right-click on a banner and choose “Adblock” from the context menu — the banner won’t be downloaded again.
