My Reviews

SoundCloud Downloader

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Hijacks traffic to Google Search and Bing, sending the search query to Yahoo! instead.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.0.2). 

FastPrevNext

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Reviewing version 10 on Firefox 39. There is not much to tell: This plug-in tries to find an iterator at the end of the URL and increase or decrease it. It places its small user interface in the address bar and reveals it only when the mouse is over there, thus and causes conflict with reading mode icon there.

With only user interface and functionality to consider, the only feasible scores for this add-on is either 1 or 3 or 5.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (10.1-signed). 

Mozilla Archive Format, with MHT and Faithful Save

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

This is nice bit of feature to have, especially it lets users open MHT files in their Firefox instances and benefit from the added security that Firefox add-ons provide.

However, it is not compatible with Outlook 2013. The MHT file that Outlook generates with its "View in Browser" command does not render well in Firefox with this add-on.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (3.0.0.1-signed). 

Wikipedia (SSL)

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Extremely useful for Wikipedia editors who use Wikipedia over SSL connections, since the secure Wikipedia site requires a separate sign-in.

I cannot confirm whether this provider has search suggestions. (Search suggestions does not work properly in my Firefox anyway.)

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (20101024). 

Microsoft .NET Framework Assistant

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

This plugin is an official and competent replacement for FFClickOnce by James Dobson. It allows publishers of Open Source or free applications to publish their products so that it is downloaded and installed painlessly, in the same manner that a Firefox add-on is installed.

Unfortunately, this add-on received an undeservedly bad reputation because in its first version, it could have not been uninstalled or disabled. Although applications like Internet Download Manager or Orbit Downloader still include such intrusive add-ons, they never received such criticism as this add-on did -- only because this add-on is from Microsoft and bashing Microsoft has become a sport these days.

Microsoft has now resolved the old problem with this plug-in and has published updates for it via Automatic Update or Microsoft Update.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.2.1).
