PDF Download Extension - Give Your Web Experience a Major Upgrade

Great solution that solves your PDF handling problems easily

Do you have a problem trying to click a PDF files or handle this kind of files on Firefox? Or download it? Are you annoyed waiting for just the PDF plugins loading? If you do , PDF Download extension is one of few Firefox addons recommended by Mozilla which can solves all your PDF files handling problems. It's easy to use and very convenient. But in order to view the PDF files you need to download the PDF plugins, either Adobe Reader or Foxit Reader.

This extension comes in handy when you really don't know the size of that particular PDF file. In normal circumstances, when you try to view it on Firefox you need to wait for it to load the PDF plugins (Adobe Reader, Foxit Reader or any PDF plugins) which is very annoying, download the file to your machine and view it.

But if you use PDF Download instead, there's a dialog box that will appear and shows the real size of the file and give you a choice to download it, open it or view it as HTML files. This is a very cool extension and I really love it.

Change Your Firefox Appearance to Vista Aero Style with Vista-aero Theme

What a cool way to change your Firefox appearance to Vista Aero style with Vista-aero Theme made by Merci Chao. This theme will change your Firefox into a jaw-dropping graphics just like in Window Vista. It uses buttons similar to IE7, which is great for me and it suits nicely. However if you install it on your machine other than Vista, it might not look that cool.
