  • Enhancements:
  • Script updates install automatically. (#1442)
  • In 0.9.12 we added update checking. In 0.9.13 updates install automatically, but there's still some discussion over how to handle this best (#1455), so checking is still not enabled by default. We hope to figure this out by the 0.9.14 release. Some other update related work was done, mostly to make Firefox 3 work better. (#1421, #1422, #1423)
  • Provide an Options item in the Monkey Menu. (#1447)
  • Add a Cancel button to the Options window. (#1454)
  • Bug fixes:
  • GM_getResourceText() was broken. (#1438)
  • You can properly select an application (bundle) for the editor on Mac OS X. (#1439)
  • Fix GM_openInTab() for Firefox 3. (#1444)
  • Fix when pages reassign the location during page load. (#1445)
Pros
  • Lots of different scripts available
  • Very easy to set up and use
Cons
  • Not many configuration options
  • No direct link to Userscript

Greasemonkey is a Firefox extension that allows you to customize the way webpages look and function.

Hundreds of scripts are already available for free. And if you're the tinkerer sort, you can also write your own.

Greasemonkey can add added featues to your favorite sites through the use of scripts. There is pretty much a script for any site your looking for if you search the web. Some scripts simply remove ads from that one site or fix bugs the site has. It's useful for those who know how to use the scripts The downsides to Greasemonkey are the fact Greasemonkey is a security risk in itself, hackers ca send malicious code into Firefox using Greasemonkey. Another downside is the fact the scripts aren't hosted by or tested by Mozilla, their instead on a third party site and any user can upload a script including those who upload malware. I don't recommend Greasemonkey to most due to the security issues and the fact JetPack is being integrated into Firefox 4 and it does a lot of what Greasemonkey does but a lot of JetPacks scripts are hosted on Mozilla's site and JetPack is more secure than Greasemonkey. So if you want an add-on that you can use scripts to make your surfing experience on websites better, try JetPack before moving onto Greasemonkey.

Pros
  • Using Scripts Can Make Sites Work The Way You Like
  • Doesn't Require A Reboot To Use The Scripts
  • Free
Cons
  • Hackers Infect Firefox Using Malicious Code Through Greasemonkey
  • Scipts Aren't Hosted On A Mozilla Site So Malware Can Be Uploaded By Users
  • JetPack Is Similar To Greasemonkey But A Lot Of Their Scripts Are Hosted On Mozilla.
