GreaseMonkey rules | Firefox pop-up blocker

What I have now:

1. Persistent Search in Gmail
2. Ad-free Yahoo mail (free version) (don't follow this link unless you have greasemonkey already installed)
3. Autocomplete in my Post to Del.icio.us bookmarklet


all thanks to Greasemonkey. The uber firefox extension. Definitely worth installing (even only for no. 1 above, but there's a lot more...)

...

Firefox has a sort of unofficial update to its pop-up blocker engine (as of now packaged as a POP-UPS MUST DIE! extension). Problem is that it catches even gmail's valid pop ups (and a few other non-evil pop-ups I guess), so you must add gmail.google.com to the allowed sites. The most apparent effect for us is the removal of friendster's pop ups (which nikki correctly identified as flash-generated pop ups).
update: they have an updated, "less draconian" extension (hopefully it now plays nicely with Gmail). Get it here

...

Greasemonkey is one of the hundreds of extensions (stuff that adds extra functions that your firefox browser can do) that you can add to Firefox, the best web browser I have ever used. If you still haven't downloaded firefox, please, help yourself. Get it now.

...

last: just saw this on spreadfirefox
