My Reviews
Forecastfox Weather
Rated 3 out of 5 stars
Firefox 35.0.1 / Forecastfox v2.2.4. it's Saturday 1/31. my "Now:" was stuck on last Tuesday (presumably the day Firefox updated to v35.01). i closed Firefox, renamed "forecastfox.sqlite" > "forecastfox.sqlite.BAK". opened Firefox, reconfig'd my Forecastfox prefs. STILL behind but apparently only by 12 hours. my "Now:" says 11:50pm, it's 10:59am as i type this. everything else seems to be working but now i have to go elsewhere for current conditions, possibly even (gasp) outside. looks like Forecastfox is doomed. if i knew how to get it up to current Firefox specs i'd fork it. maybe some day.
UPDATE: current conditions ("Now:") were briefly only a few minutes behind real time. looked good. i hit "Reload Weather Data" and "Now:" reverted back to 11:50pm last night with corresponding temp. great.

PROs: i'll take on faith (and from Lifehacker) that it works.CONs: UNLOCK THE TOOLBAR ICON. like others here i am disabling until i specifically need it for one of the sites.please do not try to control our user experience.
EDIT: Hola (Developer) replied, says they're "working on enabling to move the icon". thanks, appreciate the effort & communication, will update review again if you solve this.
DownThemAll!

great add-on, love how it allows to resume downloads, which isn't native to Firefox (AFAIK).
i'm trying to view my DTA history, track server download times, no idea where to find this. unfortunately the developer's Help & FAQ sub-pages are down:

Grocery List Generator
Rated 1 out of 5 stars
**healthy, stable installation of XP Pro SP3 +FFox 3.0.4**
been using this for at least 18 months. immediately after initial default installation i moved the data files to a preferred sub-directory and pointed the program to that DIR. got errors every time i opened/closed the program for weeks. not sure why/how but they eventually slowed to a trickle. guess it's a slow learner.
try to add or delete an items. error: "Could not find the selected item. Please try again." (repeats twice each time). i've been trying to delete the same item forever but all this buggy program does is delete the top item in the category. i must have deleted 5-10 'innocent' items before i figured that out. the item i want to delete just sits there, laughing.
after 'forcing' a new item onto the list i get the same error as above when i attempt to generate list.
after annual reformat/reinstallation of Windows the same problems come back immediately.
on a less critical (but still important) note, users should be able to reduce font on the generated list, even if only by using Ctrl+-. further print options wouldn't hurt either. but like i said, these are options to worry about once a program is stable.
i just wanted something to keep a running 'aisle-by-aisle' grocery list, as this add-on suggests. GLG has promise and ambitious higher-functions but it simply can't be relied upon for the fundamental core task of maintaining a running custom grocery list.
