This includes whether to block pop-up windows. These options include:
 Java and JavaScript??”You can control whether these languages are enabled.
 Warn on installation??”Specify this to warn you when a site tries to install a Firefox
extension or theme. This is an important security feature.
 Privacy??”Choose how long to store a history of addresses of the sites you have typed in
your location bar. (These addresses appear in the History tab on the Firefox sidebar.) Set
Privacy preferences to control how Firefox caches data and allows Web sites to find out
information about you. These preferences include:
 Cache??”By default, the most recent 4MB of Web pages you visit are stored in RAM,
and the most recent 50MB of pages you visit are stored on your hard disk. If a page is
not out-of-date, caching makes it possible to return to a page quickly, without the
browser??™s needing to reload from the original Web server. Cache preferences let you
change how much information is cached, and where the hard-disk cache is located.
Other preferences let you clear all memory and disk cache immediately.
 Passwords??”Control whether Firefox saves the passwords you type onto Web forms.
