Some advantages offered by Mozilla Firefox that is rarely discussed!!!
If you are a user of Microsoft’s Internet Explorer, you would have experienced the long, drawn out and rather irritating procedure for clearing the web browsing history and other private data stored in your web browser. You will have to delete all the cookies stored on your web browser, clear the folder containing the temporary internet files and then proceed to clear the history folder of your web browser.
All this takes a fair bit of time. If you are clearing the web browsing history after a long time, the whole task of clearing the web browsing history and other private data stored in the web browser will take a lot of your time. As compared to these web browsers, Mozilla Firefox offers a very attractive option
. It provides a list of the folders and information that can be cleared with a single click. All you have to do is enable the folder and/ or information you want to clear and click on the ‘OK’ button. Your entire work is done in a jiffy. The ability to clear multiple folders containing private information in a single shot is a very convenient facility offered by Mozilla Firefox.
2.List of recently visited websites.This is one aspect of Mozilla Firefox that is never given the due it deserves. All you have to do is click on the GO menu and you will see a list of close to ten last visited web pages. If you lose track, it is very easy for you to find your way back using this option.
Since this option is present, there is absolutely no reason for you to worry about losing your way while surfing the Internet. Just keep on surfing and keep checking the ‘GO’ menu to keep track of your movement on the Internet. This feature is very useful if you happen to visit a number of websites again and again in a regular order.
You need not use the address bar or the ‘back’ or ‘forward’ button. All you need to do is to use the ‘GO’ menu feature.3.The automatic update feature.It is surprising not a lot is talked about the automatic update feature in Mozilla Firefox. It is a sign of the efficiency of the update feature that it works silently in the background.
This feature does a lot of good work without grabbing any attention. However, Mozilla Firefox does not violate the privacy of the user of the web browsing software application. It does not compel the user of the web browsing software application to opt for the update. The Firefox web browser alerts the user of the web browsing software application of the fact that an update is available.
When the user of the Firefox web browser desires to download the update, all he or she needs to do is to click on the rotating and blinking circle on the top left of the browser. The update process will start automatically. Mozilla Firefox will check for updates and will inform the user of the web browser about the nature of update available.
Here, the user of the Firefox web browser is given the choice to proceed with the update after he or she comes to know about the nature of update. If the user does not want to update, all he has to do is cancel the process. It is only after the user makes a conscious decision to update the web browser does the update process commences.
