I’m a huge fan of Chrome not because of its functionality but because of its UI (that’s the only thing I like about it). But luckily there is a way to have that UI in my favorite browser, that is of course the mighty Firefox.

Chromifox Extreme is FOR Firefox 3.5*, it will not work with the olderversions for that you have to use Chromifox Basic.

When you have finished Installing Chromifox, Firefox almost looks like Chrome, I say almost because some of the features of Chrome UI are missing. Like domain highlighting and hidden menu bar.

To get that Chrome feeling, install the following extensions (or add-ons).

LocationBar2 – For domain highlighting.

HideMenubar – For a hidden menu bar that will appear as soon as you press the Alt Key.

Download Statusbar – Another Firefox-chrome difference is the download status.When you download a file in Firefox browser a window pops out when showing the download status (time remaining,size of file) whereas in Google chrome the download status is seen in the status bar.

Both these plug-ins are fully compatible with Firefox 3.5* so do not worry about any compatibility issues. Below I have given a screenshot of how my Firefox looks after installing all these plugins.
