I see you found SizeUp. That's also my application of choice. But it doesn't look like you did a lot of research into the available choices, or at least didn't bother listing them. Here's but a handful, for others who are interested: ShiftI

Unfortunately, that works only if you're frequently closing and reopening Firefox. I tend to leave it running all the time. For me, I went with an Add-On named "TooManyTabs": https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/toomanytabs-s...

You are being downvoted because, unlike the pastebin dumps in this article, the one you found was created by an account named "Planex". The ones in the article are all "Guest" / anonymous. The "Planex" account is simply a pastebin spammer.

Why do you say that? Last I checked, I don't have the right to expunge any/all data a corporate entity has collected about me that I deal with in the brick & mortar realm. I can sue for it, but I can't just walk in and say: Where's your

Umm, why not quit it instead? In Terminal / iTerm2: defaults write com.apple.Finder QuitMenuItem 1 Relaunch and now you get a Quit menu (in menubar and in contextual menu on Dock) Quit it when you don't need it, Dock launch it when you want

Works for Intel / EFI as well. Setting a boot password will lock out boot media / FireWire DMA. You can set it from your install media's Utilities menu (or while booted into Lion Recovery Partition). Fun fact: All of the Open Firmware / PPC

Your math is a bit topsy-turvy. You're ignoring the 990 sites it didn't have to check. That's 10 sites to check out of 1000 - 1% of the load of checking (remotely) all 1000 sites (or 0.9% if you only count the false positives) wasted.
