Hi Saikat!
I love your site. With all the praise that goes to the good folks at mozilla there’s still a lot of room for improvement.
Just developed a cool add-on for Firefox (and Chrome and IE) – would you mind taking a look and possibly review it?

Here it goes:

P.S. I see there’s Submit App right there at the bottom – i’ll try it as well

I just dumped DownThemAll, for Free Download Manager –>> http://www.freedownloadmanager.org/ DownThemAll all of a sudden just started working incorrectly. It wouldn’t download a file that it used to be able too. It’s menu in Tools, wouldn’t have any text and nothing was in the context menu. FDM has nice integration with both Firefox and IE(if you need to use it as well).

Hi, Nopes, I didn't mention it. Karl has covered it. Went with the simpler three instead and mentioned it in passing. It's a good one and deserves a separate post of its own.

The fabulous All in One Sidebar also makes the default Firefox download window less obtrusive. Close the sidebar, and you don’t even have see anything being downloaded.

i also hate the pop up download window. i’ve been using download statusbar for quite some time and I love it. though a few add ons i’ve used recently have caused a few glitches with it.

Thanks for this. I’m not a huge fan of Firefox’s default download window.
