First, you will need to install an add-on (also called a plug-in) for the Firefox browser. This issue is easily remedied though here, you will learn that it is possible to enjoy the speed of Firefox, while, at the same time forcing it to mimic that one aspect which Internet Explorer does do better.

It takes you step-by-step from explaining what Greasemonkey is, installing it into Firefox, installing user scripts, to actually writing and debugging your own.
