I want to use Iron with and without addons in Ubuntu 12.04. I like hoverzoom, lastpass, and a few other extensions. But sometimes I want to run an instance of Iron with no addons. Is there a switch that disables extensions so I can create a separate launcher? I mean something other than incognito mode.

Thank you. Love this software! :ironvschrome

exo-utils is for XFCE users. For others Desktop Environnments, use its own utility. For example with LXDE, it is :

Code: Select all

The whole point of the message (the extensions can access your data ...) is because there IS VERY serious danger.

Bottom line - extensions are ALWAYS a potential threat to anyone's privacy.
that's what i expected the true answer would be, honesty is appreciated... so thus far not using any addons... i really miss fbpurity though... :cry:
