What are the different types of add-ons?
There are several kinds of add-ons that customize Firefox in different ways: • Extensions add new features to Firefox or modify existing functionality. There are extensions that allow you to block advertisements, download videos from websites, integrate more closely with social websites, and add features you see in other applications. • Themes change the entire appearance of Firefox, usually including icons, colors, dialogs, and other visual styles. • Personas are lightweight themes that use background images to customize your Firefox toolbars. • Search Providers add additional choices to the search box dropdown. These providers allow you to quickly search any website. • Dictionaries & Language Packs add support for additional languages to Firefox. • Plugins help Firefox display or understand different types of media, such as Adobe Flash or Apple Quicktime.
