Therese Villemure (ID: 000000ec89f3bdf5) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 04/03/2018 The best 👍👍👍 I was looking for an extension to change my referer for some news site that allow you to view the news when you come from their Twetter. It combine 3 things you can change: Referer, Cookie and User-Agent and moreover very user friendly to use. 😊

Jan Naturlih (ID: 00000089c0c4cbe7) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/29/2015 This. Just. Wonderful! I use SrWare Iron Portable and finally I stopped annoying messages "version you are using a browser is no longer supported. Install a supported version of the browser"! Especially good that it essentially combines three extensions immediately! I think this extension is seriously underestimated. Thank you for such a great extension!
