But we need to monitor Firefox. A minute ago I deleted 7 Yahoo entries
in about:config. Using Wireshark I noticed connections to a Yahoo
thingy. If you clean about:config from all unwanted entries, you might
automagically get new unwanted entries after a while. I consider my
machine as a digital audio workstation with less security and less
privacy. Pale Moon seems not to be (much) better. Maybe QupZilla is a
little bit better, at least the history is better usable :D.
