The Firefox-Developers know best what’s good for their users, so they hide a bunch of Settings in
about:config
so it’s hard to find them.
Some of them I change in every Firefox installation:
- ask me if i want to download MP4-Files, disable the build-in Media-Player
media.play-stand-alone = false- use the DNS, not Google – if I enter a single word as URL
keyword.enabled = false- stop asking me if I really want to leave a page
dom.disable_beforeunload := true- stop autocompletion in the URL-Bar
browser.urlbar.autocomplete.enabled = falsebrowser.fixup.alternate.enabled = falsebrowser.fixup.alternate.prefix = (empty)browser.fixup.alternate.suffix = (empty)accessibility.typeaheadfind.flashBar 0
browser.fixup.alternate.suffix prod.local
browser.fixup.domainwhitelist.wiki true
browser.tabs.warnOnClose false
browser.urlbar.autocomplete.enabled false
network.dns.disablePrefetch true

Since i’m trying to get rid of Evernote, too anoying too often, i’ll start to document non-private-stuff here.
