Great addon in theory, maybe works too well. I have used NoScript and I do know that this addon and NoScript both block different elements and should be used together. However this addon requires too much customisation . Also it would be useful to have an option to allow requests to/from a particular domain; at the moment both are separate options (unidirectional). One good point of this addon is that is has a small memory footprint compared to other security addons.
If someone could produce a whitelist (much like Easylist for Adblock Plus) - this would cut down on the tedious initial customisation of the addon and I would be more inclined to use it. However, I do recommend this for the more paranoid Firefox user if they can handle tweaking from the outset. I'll stick to my trusted 5 security addons of NoScript, Adblock Plus, Ghostery, BetterPrivacy and CookieCuller for now.

Nice add on for clearing bookmarks on the fly. However I find that sometimes it clears some bookmarks that still work, maybe it has something to do with the time between sending a request and receiving a response from a website. Overall a good and unique add on.

Great alternative to Flagfox, more accurate in the location of websites; also provides more information when hovering over the flag in the address bar. Also like the fact that it displays your own IP as well. However, the Privacy Policy could be a bit clearer with regards to not collecting data from users of the add-on though, as it queries an external database to obtain locations of websites.
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.1.5.1-signed.1-signed).To create your own collections, you must have a Mozilla Add-ons account.
