hey

i just started using firefox, and i must say that i am simply OVERWHELMED by the huge amount of dialog boxes that i hv to click on ok for the first time. I mean simply logging into hotmail, checking my mail and logging out requires no less than 4 'OK's. while i appreciate the security concern here, i must say it is quite tedious.

So what im wondering is if anyone has found a simple way to make all these 'first time' security dialogs disapper, as well as applyinh the numerous setting changes and plugin installations, and extension installations that are required to make firefox actually usable, into the unattend process.

Also im assuming that if these settings are applied via the registry then it would be sufficient to put them in cmdlines.txt to ensure they are applied across all users ever created. If not, then pls advise me of some other method of making sure all users can have these settings by default in fire fox

thanks a lot for any help

Firefox settings are stored in "(drive):\documents and settings\(username)\application data\firefox\profiles\(unique profile name)" folder. In 0.9 it will change to "..\application data\mozilla\firefox\..". I'm not sure what files you need exactly, but i backup user.js and bookmarks.html.

Also back up key3.db, signons.txt and prefs.js....as for plug-in's I haven't looked in to as of yet but I'll be sure to post my findings when I do.

My current list of plug-in's:

Bookmark Links Checker
