An international community of security experts is working
around the clock to make your web browsing safer. Our team
works right from the start to identify and address potential
problems before a single line of code is written.

21. Security
•Plug-in checker
•Instant website ID
•Anti-phishing
•Anti-malware

22. Privacy

23. Privacy
The Web browser has become one of the most critical and
trusted relationships of our modern lives – with nearly
perfect knowledge of everything we do.
We take your privacy very seriously and that’s why Firefox has
implemented a number of great features to keep your private
data secure.

24. Features
Private Browsing
Surf the Web without leaving a single trace.

25. Performance

26. Performance
We’re constantly optimizing Firefox to be great for the way
you use the web – things like making new tabs open up more
quickly, or having the Awesome Bar provide results even
faster.
In the end, it’s about getting you where you need to go as
quickly and easily as possible.

27. More Features

28. Features
Awesome Bar
Find the sites you love in seconds (and without
having to remember clunky URLs).

29. Features
Stay in Sync
When you set up Firefox Sync on your computer
, all of your data and preferences (such as your
bookmarks, history, passwords, open tabs and
installed add-ons) gets stored securely on the
Mozilla servers. Then you can connect other
devices (a mobile phone for example) and they
will be automatically synchronized, giving you
access to all of your information no matter where
you are.

30. Features
Offline Browsing
Take your computer offline and still have
your information at your fingertips. Certain
sites may allow applications—like your
Web-based email—to stay with you at all
times.

31. Features
Do Not track Me
Most major websites track their visitors' behavior and
then sell or provide that information to other
companies (like advertisers). Firefox has a Do-not-
track feature that lets you tell websites you don't want
your browsing behavior tracked.
When you turn on the Do-not-track feature, Firefox
tells every website you visit (as well as their
advertisers and other content providers) that you don't
want your browsing behavior tracked

32. Features
Switch To Tab
As you’re opening a new tab or typing in the Awesome
Bar, Firefox will check to see if you already have that site open.
If you do, you’ll be directed to the existing tab so you don’t
open a duplicate.

33. Features
Tags
Label a site with names or categories that are meaningful to
you. For example, you can label
both www.bbc.co.uk and www.nytimes.com with the “news”
tag. When you enter “news” into the location bar, both sites will
be shown as results. A single site can have multiple tags, and
there’s no limit to the number of tags you can create. You may
not remember the exact name of a site, but with a tag, you’ll be
able to find it easily.
