The answer to "Why" is because you're in a different area of the site and the other links you would like to see aren't available.Quote:

This second shot simply shows some of the hidden URLs:

As you can see, this makes it easy to get the forum page I want to see next no matter what page I'm currently viewing. I'm not forced to wade around in Forum pages trying to find the link I need next.
Another cool option you can see in the first image is that Firefox has the "Open All in Tabs". Click that and all your favorite pages for that particular forum are opened and ready to go.
By the way, all of the URLs that I had before the vBulletin upgrade(s) still work.
Works for me ... :)
I've been using something similar to that for years. I have many folders set up under Bookmarks, Daily-Ecycle-Financial-Shopping and others. The Daily folder has all the sites I go to every day including the Virtual Dr. pages I use. The Shopping folder has all the stores I buy things from locally and on line. The Financial folder has a couple of Banks, the Stock Market, my Mutual Fund and IRA etc. This makes it extremely fast to get anywhere I want without a mile and a half long Bookmark list. All my URL's before the upgrade still work also.
Yep, do the same here in IE for most of my Shopping, Financial sites.
Just because I'm curious (nosey), would you tell me why you use IE rather than Firefox?
Hmmm... Laziness?. :)
1) I keep Firefox locked down pretty tight, (noscript, adblock, ghostery, flashblock, etc.).
2) I know the vast majority of sites are designed to work with Internet Explorer.
Fair enough. Firefox is said to be more secure and seems to be a bit faster which is why I use it. I can't remember the last time I found a site that required IE only. That could be due to the different type of sites we each go to. Personal preference is a big part of it also. Thanx for the reply.
No problem. :)
I'm quite sure many of the Shopping, Financial, etc. sites I use would work in Firefox but, I'd have to do some altering to allow it to show the pages as intended. I find it much easier to simply load IE. Like I said, "Laziness?". :D
