Thank you for sharing your configuration, lawking.:) I like it,;) and your setup includes two of my favorite Add-ons!

There are two gecko engine (Firefox-like) x64 Bit Browsers I recommend. Both are fast & secure, and you can read all about them. Each can be extracted as portable versions onto an external flash drive, & serves to keep your system lighter.:cool:
  1. Cyberfox https://8pecxstudios.com/cyberfox-web-browser
  2. Pale Moon http://www.palemoon.org/
  • Security updates can be performed manually, & directly over previous versions.
I do like Opera Next http://www.opera.com/computer/next , installed temporarily while using Shadow Defender http://www.softpedia.com/get/Security/Security-Related/Shadow-Defender.shtml in "Shadow Mode", utilizing only (2) extensions: LastPass & HTTP Switchboard (described below).;)

For added security, I recommend Sandboxie free. http://sandboxie.com/ which contains your browser in a "sandbox". Just think of it as a space suit which protects your system from all that is :eek:evil & lurks in the cold reaches of internet space!!:D

For privacy in Firefox you might consider
..and if you wish to block Cookies & Java script respectively
In Opera

All of the above can be test driven in Sandboxie. Once the sandbox is deleted these additions disappear from the system. Poof!!:rolleyes:
Changes, Add-ons, & updates, you wish to remain permanent can be performed to last when
outside the sandbox & it's protections.

Good luck with any and all that you may
find useful!:D
