Firefox is free and customizable
Favorite Firefox Extensions
One of the characteristics of the Firefox browser is its adaptability, much of which is attributable to extensions (also called add-ons). These extensions allow an individual user to add specific functionality to the browser, so it better suits their particular browsing needs.
