User reviews
Do not use this addon!
What it does is hold your tabs hostage - it replaces tab address with a text string which is only understood by this addon.
If anything happens to this addon - consider all your tabs gone, they will not load anymore. Even if you re-activtae or re-install the addon, this won't solve the problem, the tabs will still not load!
Same thing will happen if the addon becomes incompatible with the future FF releases - you will lose all your tabs.
I am writing this looking at multiple dead tabs which I can't load anymore after de-activating and then re-activating this addon...
