Mozilla auto configuration
:::::::::: The problem is that not many people take the time to update the documentation, me included. It is a Wiki so anyone can add to and correct it. Who will take the time to revise the silent installers, which is a huge amount, to have the same layout? Sure, if this has been done once, one would only need to revise new additions and changes.

== Mozilla auto configuration ==
 
I think we can start a separate page for mozilla configuration, I put here mine because I spent so much time finding how to automatically add bookmarks
 
<source lang="javascript">
// -*- java -*-
// put this file in "%ProgramFiles%\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\pref\"
// Load firefox.cfg
pref("general.config.filename", "firefox.cfg");
</source>
 
<source lang="javascript">
// -*- java -*-
 
// Firefox 3.5 autoconfiguration
// Works with 3.0 except for bookmarks
 
// // put this configuration in a file called mozilla.cfg in mozilla
// // firefox installation directory
// pref("general.config.filename", "firefox.cfg");
 
// Works based on:
