r3dfox - Modern Firefox for Windows 7 Reviews

GOOD

Cool. It even works on XP with OCAPI + NNN4NT5 :)

Awesome! The very latest Firefox in Windows 7 :) Firefox itself is a really fantastic browser. Firefox doesn't mine your data like Google Chrome. Google are also planning to phase out ad blocker UBlock in their new "Manifest V3" extensions system, starting June 2024. The V3 extensions make thing hards for ad blockers, and will only have a Lite version of UBlock with limited functionality, as Google are clamping down on the ability to filter ads in Chrome. Google have a conflict of interest since their business model involves deceiving users by marketing through Google Ads. That's a terrible business model for an internet information search and browser company. Google are basically selling their users to ad companies. There's really no reason for Google to even bother making a browser since open-source Firefox has it covered, and Google can just help make Firefox instead of re-inventing the wheel. Firefox is made by a non-profit, the Mozilla Foundation. The only issue they have is currently they are partially reliant on money from Google and search or social media companies, for adding search options and links in the drop down in Firefox. Hopefully Mozilla find better alternatives, or use more effective direct funding like Wikipedia does. UBlock works great in Firefox. Firefox has lots of useful extensions in it's privacy and security section. It's got extensions to make popular social media sites better too. In Windows 7 you can use open-source Sandboxie or Sandboxie Plus with browsers and other programs for added security, the free option is sufficient. As well as isolating programs, Sandboxie stores changes made to files separately to be only visible to programs inside the sandbox, so no files are changed outside the sandbox.
