noRedirect

Firefox plugin to avoid redirects encoded in urls.

It is made to work with the old firefox versions. The test version I use is 47.0.2. It may work in other versions too.

• To install it in firefox, you must go to about:config in the firefox url bar, and set the parameter xpinstall.signatures.required to false
• For easy deploy, you must create a file named "linktargetfinder@robertnyman.com" in "C:\Users[USER]\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\upvl1yzo.default\extensions" and edit it with the path of this repository locally. By example: "C:\GitHub\Proyectos\Firefox\noRedirect"
• If you want to distribute it you can meake a zip file with all the contents and remane it to a .xpi file
