Embarrassed Restore Session of Firefox 3.5

I have always been a Mozilla Firefox user since 2006. What I like most about it are its strong security, tabbed browsing and automatic spell checking features as well as the various plug-ins that you can add to suit your needs.

A Different Kind of Easter Egg Hunt

Category: Computers

I have long been fascinated with Easter eggs. No, I’m not talking about the ovoid, shiny, decorated, different-colored objects apparently hidden by the Easter Bunny for kids to hunt down during Easter Sunday morning. What I’m referring to are those hidden message, in-joke or feature in an object such as a movie, video game, or computer program. They are the “virtual” Easter eggs.

To better understand what I’m talking about, type this in the address bar of your Mozilla Firefox browser: about:mozilla. The message that appears is an Easter egg. It might differ depending on the version you are using. Mammon refers to those Internet Explorer users. Here’s another one; go to Yahoo’s website. Click on the dot in the exclamation point. You must have a speaker to hear the yodel.
