After Apple Safari, Internet Explorer and Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox’s yet-to-be-released version (Firefox 3.1) will sport a privacy mode. In privacy mode, Firefox will not record a history of visited sites, cookies etc. from websites, protecting your privacy when you visit *uhm* websites.
Apple’s Safari has had private mode for ages, and Google Chrome, which has adopted most good features of browsers on the market, has an Incognito mode to cover your tracks.

Now, Firefox 3.1 will get a similar functionality too. Of course, Firefox users can get most of the functionality right now with Stealthier extension for Firefox. Expect our review of Stealthier extension soon. Have you used such extensions for Firefox? If so, which would you recommend?
