Because new exploits are being discovered all the time, it??™s important that you keep your Web
browser up-to-date. That means that, at the least, you need to get updates of Firefox from the
Linux distribution you are using or directly from Mozilla.org. To keep up on the latest security
news and information about Firefox and other Mozilla products, refer to the Mozilla Security
Center (www.mozilla.org/security/).

Tips for Using Firefox
There are so many nice features in Firefox, it??™s hard to cover all of them. Just to point you toward a
few more fun and useful features, here are some tips for using Firefox:
Add smart keywords??”Many Web sites include their own search boxes to allow you to
look for information on their sites. With Firefox, you can assign a smart keyword to any
search box on the Web, and then use that keyword from the location bar in the Firefox
browser to search that site.
For example, go to the Linux Documentation Project site (http://tldp.org). Rightclick
in the Search/Resources search box. Select Add a Keyword for this Search from the
menu that appears. Add a name (Linux Documentation) and a keyword (tldp), and select
Add to add the keyword to your Bookmarks.
After you have added the keyword, you can use it by simply entering the keyword and
one or more search terms to the Firefox location box (on the navigation toolbar).
