I started a Typecourse on Internet. I need the / -key in an exercise, but I do not type in an official textbox. Every time I use this key, the find box opens. How can I prevend that.

Is there a way to turn of the find box completely, or at least to change the short-keys for the find box?

I will have the same problem with the '-key soon.

If you have saved the xpi file to your computer (e.g. Desktop) then you can install the extension via File > Open File.

Thank you, Cor-el, that seems a sollution to my problem. I tried to download the extension, but I don't seem to get it to work. Where do I save it and how can I make it installing itself? I use Vista.

I am sorry, I have never done this before... :-)
