Scan & Fix 50 registry issues FREEPublisher's Description
From Electronic Frontier Foundation:
HTTPS Everywhere is a Firefox extension produced as a collaboration between The Tor Project and the Electronic Frontier Foundation. It encrypts your communications with a number of major websites.
Many sites on the web offer some limited support for encryption over HTTPS, but make it difficult to use. For instance, they may default to unencrypted HTTP, or fill encrypted pages with links that go back to the unencrypted site.
The HTTPS Everywhere extension fixes these problems by rewriting all requests to these sites to HTTPS. Note that some of those sites still include a lot of content from third party domains that is not available over HTTPS. As always, if the browser's lock icon is broken or carries an exclamation mark, you may remain vulnerable to some adversaries that use active attacks or traffic analysis. However, the effort required to monitor your browsing should still be usefully increased.
What's new in this version: Version 2.0 fixes tiny settings window on some versinos of Windows, a drop down menu bug, disables Netflix, and adds other translations.

"good to have but annoying to use"
Version: HTTPS Everywhere 2.0.1
Pros
provides the required security
Cons
has to restart the browser every time you apply it to a site
Summary
I usually have several browser windows open, and when I open a new site, I am invit3ed to set the https everywhere rule for it, then I nave to have all the pages reload. this is annoying as any video I had waiting to be watched later starts playing, and I have to wait till everything reloads,

""Does what it says on the tin""
Version: HTTPS Everywhere 2.0.1
Pros
Another useful weapon in the safe browsing armoury
Cons
Occasional odd behaviour on some sites
Summary
Worth putting up with the (very) occasional quirk for the added protection, particularly those sites that only move to HTTPS after you have entered log-in details.
