This is the most important addon for firefox.

As seems to happen so often these days, another own bite the dust, or rather the corporate ass. Firefox is going the way of Google and selling out.

It seems that OptimizeGoogle is a newer Version of this Addon (CustomizeGoogle) and regulary updated on the sourceforge homepage: sourceforge.net/projects/optimizegoogle

I have just updated CustomizeGoogle to work with FF15 and it seems to work ok.
Here's how to do it:
1. Right click the "+ Add to Firefox" link and use "Save Link As" to save the "customizegoogle-0.76-fx+sm.xpi" file to your computer.
2. Follow the instructions on this page to change the compatibility:
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Editing_an_add-on_to_change_its_compatibility
I changed this line:
<em:maxVersion>3.1b2pre</em:maxVersion>
To this:
<em:maxVersion>15.0.*</em:maxVersion>
3. Drag the edited xpi file into FF.
I haven't checked all the functions, but remove click tracking works, and that's all I really wanted.

"Note from Mozilla: This add-on has been discontinued. Try Google Minimalist instead."
You guys are kidding, right? Google Minimalist has nothing to do with CustomizeGoogle at all. The former completely anonymized search results, the latter just changes Google's design into a goofy-looking box on a select few pages. Like saying, "No apples? Just eat oranges, man. Same thing!" You guys can't be serious.

Why is this app not available for FIrefox 10.0.2? Are there any other apps that I can use to Anonymize the Google cookie UID?

@nonhocapito CustomizeGoogle was abandoned in 2008. OptimizeGoogle was a fork to continue the project.
Unfortunately now progress on OptimizeGoogle has been halted, so they are looking for new developers.
However, OptimizeGoogle was updated as recently as November 2010 so everyone using this addon should switch to that anyway.

Confusingly identical to "optimizegoogle". at least use different icons, people!
not that it makes much difference. it's ironic that both extensions are here, and neither is being properly maintained.

If it's not working for you just use OptimizeGoogle it's more or less the same thing.

An excellent add-on, but if you think this anonymizes you from google while the internet, you really have no idea how broad their extent is on the internet and the various tools they use to collect data.
