Download FireTune 1.0

After a series of betas, Totalidea Software finally has 1.0 of its web browser tweaking tool FireFox ready for you. The download has increased in size by two and a half and now measures 500KB. This is mainly due to the fact that the program now comes in the form of an installer and no longer as a zip file. What is immediately noticeable is that the interface has been overhauled. This is how it got tabs and also some other colors. Fortunately, “under the hood” a few things have also been adjusted. The tweaks can now also be disabled and the program has undergone the necessary code optimizations. The full changelog looks like this:
