00:00 Welcome to the tutorial of Mozilla Firefox.
00:04 In this tutorial, we will learn how to: set General preferences, set Privacy preferences.
00:11 In this tutorial, we are using Firefox version 7.0 on Ubuntu 10.04.
00:18 Preferences within Mozilla Firefox allows us to perform repetitive tasks with ease.
00:24 For Windows users, this feature is called Options.
00:29 Say for example, we want to set our email login page as our home page.
00:33 So, we will click on Edit and Preferences.
00:37 Windows users should click on Tools and Options.
00:42 The Preferences or Options dialog box opens. At the top of the dialog box, there are a number of tabs.
00:50 Each one has a different function.
00:53 The General panel contains preferences related to the most commonly used settings such as : setting Firefox home page, setting file download location.
01:04 Let us learn how to set 'Gmail' as our default home page.
01:08 Under Start up, in the When Firefox starts drop-down menu, select ‘Show my home page’.
01:16 By default, the Home page field is set to ‘Mozilla Firefox Start Page’.
01:22 Click on the Home Page field and type ‘www.gmail.com’.

04:04 In the ‘When using the location bar, suggest:’ field, we will click on the drop down-menu and select 'Nothing'.
