Screenshot Pimp ( don’t )

A few months ago I needed to create some screenshots of web pages in firefox, so I went and installed the ScreenshotPimp extension.

All went well until today, when ScreenshotPimp was upgraded. After restarting firefox I was offered to have ScreenshotPimp handle my default search settings. This was odd, but after un-checking this option I was appalled by what I saw.

I just received a new row for the infamous ‘Bing’ search in firefox.

WTF. What has a screen-shot tool to do with my search settings. Puh-lease, this was the lowest blow ever and I despise the developer who sold his soul to Micro$oft.

This piece of crapware should be removed from the firefox add-ons repository. After all, if I really wanted to use Bing instead of another search engine, I would do so and install BingPimp or simply reconfig the search box parameters.

Grrr, another Sunday ruined by Mircro$oft.
