Preferences Monitor Description

Over the last few weeks there have been several users submitting reviews complaining about add-ons which suddenly changed Firefox preferences without their knowledge. Preferences Monitor is a Firefox addon designed to watch for changes in the about:config preferences and to alert you of what was changed exactly. There are three scenarios regarding changes: · Changes made by Firefox itself. · Changes made by extensions to its own preferences. · Changes made by extensions to private Firefox preferences. All of them will be notified on the ErrorConsole, while those of point 3 will be notified with a NotificationBox as well (see screenshot), in such NotificationBox you have a "More Info" button which you can use to open the ErrorConsole. There will be maintained a single NotificationBox at a time, if several changes are noticed simultaneously an asterisk will be added to the button (will become "More Info*")
