SwitchProxy for Firefox 3.0

As you probably know already, SwitchProxy add-on does not work with Firefox 3.0. Jeremy Gillick has not updated this great add-on from November 2006, so, obviously, there is no update for Firefox 3.0.

For those who never heard or used it, SwitchProxy is a nice tool that lets you supervise and switch between several proxy configurations promptly and without any difficulty. As I explained in previous post (How To Hide Your IP Using SwitchProxy Firefox Add-on), SwitchProxy is ideal for those interested in hiding their IPs by using proxies.

So, what to do if you upgraded to Firefox 3.0 and still want to use SwitchProxy add-on? Here is what you can do:

1. Use Multiproxy Switch, which is based on SwitchProxy, and it can work on Firefox 3.0 (I will come back with more details about this add-on in a later post)
2. Use the upgrade for Firefox 3.0 proposed by random($foo). Here is the direct download link for SwitchProxy for Firefox 3.0.

I hope that Jeremy Gillick will find time to upgrade SwitchProxy in the near future, as it would be sad to have this great add-on dead and buried. :)

Happy Surfing!
