[QUOTE="rndmblk, post: 940664, member: 89746"] Typical advice here on MT seems to be that the less extensions you use the better, at least from a security perspective. Each additional extension has the, admittedly probably quite small, chance of having a vulnerability/being compromised. The less extensions you use overall the smaller your brower 'attack surface'. I am paraphrasing comments from more experience members so hope I'm using the terms correctly. However, I believe the general advice is fewer = better from the security side of things. [/QUOTE]
