My Reviews

FireFTP

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I keep trying to switch to a client that isn't part of Firefox, SmartFTP, Filezilla, Cyberduck, but I keep coming back to FireFTP because it is the easiest to use and has the best GUI.

I couldn't find where to submit support/feature requests but it'd be great if the FTP settings were saved to Firefox sync. I'm not even sure if that's possible but any time I have to change machines I have to reconfigure all my FTP sites, but that would really just be icing on a great cake.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.0.26). 

OnlyWire - Social Networking Auto-Submitter

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Onlywire is a brilliant concept and maybe after a few more updates it truly be the one button to rule them all, the way lastpass is for passwords. Right now I have several services that seem to fail when they feel like it (bebo) despite triple checking my password. also Stumbleupon (my preferred service) never works and that is a shame. I contacted OW support and they are supposedly working on it.

DownThemAll!

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

My favorite new add-on. I was glad for the accelerator that worked with RapidShare, but even more excited for the Download them ALL option to dl all links on a page w/o all the endless and repetitive clicking back and forth. I have FF2 and havent experienced any problems. Wish it would resume broken downloads, though.

for anyone experiencing troubles between DtA and RapidShare: you might need to change to 'direct downloading'. if you login to your premium account space, there is an options link button in the middle of the page. direct download is then an option... ie you skip the page where you'd normally pick the server/mirror you want to dl from and you are directed to the actual file. if you don't then yes, you will dl that intermediate webpage and not the file. if you are downloading 100MB PART files you might just need to change the file name. for instance, i have to add the . before rar to make mine valid archives.
