More browser security

The Electronic Frontier Foundation has released a new Firefox extension called HTTPS Everywhere. This extension will protect your online sessions (to some extent) by forcing your browser to use the more secure HTTPS protocol when an online provider makes that available. The rules apparently protect your use of Twitter, Facebook, Paypal, Wordpress, and other social and blogging networks.

If you want to use online services somewhat safely, use Firefox, with HTTPS Everywhere, Noscript, Petname, and other extensions which improve your browser security.
