How Firefox Works
       1.Introduction to How Firefox Works


  How many Web browsers do you know? For example,
Internet Explorer, Apple Safari, Google Chrome, Opera and
Firefox. My favorite browsers is Firefox, so I will explain
Firefox to you.
   Fireofox has been steadily chipping away at Internet
Explorer's dominance. Because Many people use Windows
and Internet Explorer. Many Windows users don't give a
second browsers. In fact, some people aren't aware that there
are many Web browsers in the world.
 Firefox is building a growing crowd of dedicated users who
spread their enthusiasm by word of mouth.
 Popularity about Firefox has grown since it started its
service, particularly among Web.
 I think that reason is Firefox increase we can find out what
makes Firefox different, what it can do and what effect an
open-source browser might have on the Internet.
2.Firefox History


   Do you precisely understand about Firefox? Actually,
general people don't exactly understand it.
   The origins of Firefox directly connects to Netscape which
a company whose Web browser. Netscape took a leading part
browser before Microsoft made Internet Explorer. The
internal company name for the browser was Mozilla.
   Eventually, Netscape released the source code that anyone
could see and use the code. A non-profit group was set up to
direct the development of browsers using this code. This
group established the Mozilla Foundation in 2003. But if
everything had gone as planned, Firefox is not the browser
the Mozilla group would have released.
   And, the browser that was known as Firefox was known as
Phoenix; in addition, Phoenix was changed the name to
Firefox.
   Currently, about 20 percent people who use Internet
download Firefox.
3.Firefox Basics


   At first, the top of the screen, you'll find the Awesome Bar
that is a space for typing in Web addresses. Forward, back,
home, reload and stop can all be found in this basic
construction. These buttons are fully customizable. You can
reconstitute them and get rid of some of them or add new
ones.
   As soon as you begin typing something, the browser will
pull up a list of sites when you've visited it thinks you want.
   You can just pick from the list in the drop-down menu and
the browser will take you there directly. The Awesome Bar
doesn't just track URL. It also picks terms found in the sites
you visit. So if you're looking for a site with a particular
name, there's a good chance that Firefox can help you track
the site down.
   Now, Firefox is so similar to Internet Explorer. There are
quite a few reasons, but Firefox is proud of security for many
users. Firefox was considered safer than Internet Explorer,
but every program has defect.
   In fact, that defect was discovered in the Firefox.
4.Firefox Features



   In Firefox, there are useful features that set it except for
earlier versions of Internet Explorer. In fact, that practical
every other browser, for example, Internet Explorer, Opera
and Google Chrome, has accepted them.
   If you want to visit a new Web site while keeping your
current one open in except from Firefox, you have to open a
completely new browser window. However Firefox solves
that by permitting sites to open in separate tabs within the
same browser window. Instead of switching between browser
windows, you can look different sites by clicking on the tabs
that appear below the toolbar in Firefox. Its site works under
some different operating systems, but it is not Windows.
    This feature allows you to use the browser without it
recording any of your search history or other identifiable
information about your session. Or if you prefer, you can use
the Forget this Site option instead to eliminate all traces of
that one source.
5.Firefox Extensions


   Gestures
  You can customize the gestures and combine them . For
example a down-then-left gesture minimizes the browser
window.
   Foxy Tunes
   Firefox extension places a small control panel on the
Firefox tool bar. And that tool bar allow users to control any
media player software from within the browser.
   Forecast Fox
   This popular extension puts a short-range weather forecast
in your toolbar.
   Radial Context
   The Radial Context extension livens this up by giving you
a small dial of graphical options instead of that plain text
menu.
   Adblock Plus
   Some use a list of known ad servers or block images from
servers with the words banner in the domain name.
6.Firefox Security


   If you try to install software on your computer, Internet
Explorer checks to see if the digital signature matches the
actual vendor of the program. However, a digital signature
doesn't guarantee safe software. It just means that someone
paid for the signature, and there have been cases of fraudulent
signatures being issued.
   Firefox offers several other security enhancements. In
addition, Firefox now offers anti-phishing and anti-malware
protection. If you visit a site that may attempt to install
spyware, Firefox will give you a warning and even provide
you with a reason why it's not safe to visit that site.
   There are far more people who want to close security holes
than there are hackers who want to exploit them. Having
thousands of people looking over your code and helping to
spot problems means that most security flaws will get fixed
very quickly.
   Consequently, Firefox has a very good software. If you still
don't download Firefox, I suggest that you use this Web site.
