Only add-on which checks for bad web sites is RequestPolicy
which checks for cross-site request forgery.
However, it is disabled!!
And no, I am not using a proxy.

Also, FF seems to use a single socket file descriptor for all the FF 
windows and tabs.
The side effect of it is that when you hit a sluggish site, then all 
windows/tabs are unavailable.
If you switch to another FF window, you see same image of previous 
window overlaid on every
other FF window.
I had suggested to FF people to spawn a separate thread for each tab and 
let each tab open
it's own private socket, so it will not tie up other tabs.
It fell on deaf ears!
