Mozilla Introduces New 'Forget Button' for Firefox | Update!

Mozilla Introduces New 'Forget Button' for Firefox | Update! | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
The consumer-facing browser is also getting an oft-requested ‘Forget Button’, which is essentially a retrospective ‘porn mode’ option. Using it allows you to clear between 5 minutes and 24 hours of browser data – history, cookies, log-ins, saved passwords etc. – but it leaves the rest of your stored data and auto-complete history in place. It also closes any browser windows you have open and presents you with a fresh, blank one.

Of course, switching to private browsing is still an option, but now you have an extra conduit to erase some of the recent past without having to mess about under-the-bonnet.

Among other changes to the browser, Nightingale said, is the addition of DuckDuckGo as a standard search option, alongside Google, Yahoo and the rest of the list of providers.

« Cette nouvelle enquête dépeint un tableau alarmant » indique Nicolas Brulez, senior malware analyst. « Trop souvent, les utilisateurs cliquent sur la petit croix rouge avant même de lire le contenu quand un message d'erreur ou d'information apparait à l'écran. Et se retrouvent progressivement avec un navigateur obsolète, cible favorite des malwares. Cela démontre le besoin urgent de logiciels de sécurité appropriés, capables de réagir aux nouvelles menaces en l'espace de quelques minutes, et non plusieurs jours ou semaines. »
