Open link in Internet Explorer from Firefox

Open in IE - This is a little add-ons that enables you to open a link in a new Internet Explorer Window. Even though Firefox is by far the best browser I have used, but not all sites can function well in Firefox.

So instead of copying the link and paste it in Internet Explorer, all you have to do is right-click on a link, and choose "Open Link in IE". This add-ons works well for Firefox 1.5 - 3.6.*. Here is the link.

Try Again

Does this always happen to you?

You typed the address correctly but your connection suddenly dropped or the server hosting the website is temporarily down.

If you're a Mozilla Firefox user, TryAgain add-ons is gonna keep trying to load a webpage when the server is not found. Currently, TryAgain works with Firefox version 3.0 - 3.5.*

This is very convenient so that you don't have to manually click refresh or click the try again button. You can set the amount of timeout and maximum tries. I personally like this setting :
