Mozilla Firefox (abbreviated officially as Fx, but also unofficially as FF) is a web browser descended from the Mozilla Application Suite, managed by the Mozilla Corporation. Firefox had about 15% of the recorded usage share of Web browsers as of January 2008 making Firefox the second-most popular browser in current use worldwide after Internet Explorer.Firefox uses the open-source Gecko layout engine, which implements some current Web standards plus a few features which are intended to anticipate likely additions to the standards.

Firefox includes tabbed browsing, a spell checker, incremental find, live bookmarking, a download manager, and a search system that uses Google. Functions can be added through around 2,000 add-ons created by third party developers;[2] the most popular include NoScript (script blocker), FoxyTunes (controls music players), Adblock Plus (ad blocker), StumbleUpon (website discovery), DownThemAll! (download functions) and Web Developer (web tools).

Firefox runs on various versions of Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, and many other Unix-like operating systems. Its current stable release is version 2.0.0.12, released on February 7, 2008. Firefox’s source code is free software, released under a tri-license GPL/LGPL/MPL.

No wonder why you want to use Firefox for your day to day browsing experience. But your network administrator has not given you required rights and you are unable to install this FireFox on your laptop/desktop. Pretty bad, huh!

The script mentioned in my last article works great in SOHO environment where we don’t have many shared network resources.

But it won’t work in a corporate environment where access to any network resources (file-share, printer, portal, etc) is controlled by “Network ID” (typically from Windows or Novell Netware network). This happens because “Local Administrator” are usually not part of network and they are treated as anonymous user.

Are you are normally using non-admin account to work (and browse) on your computer? If yes, following AHK (AutoHotkey) script can be a very handy tool for you.
