https everywhere

I have just downloaded your browser and it is simply incredible! It is sooo fast on my Acer Aspire 1 with Windows XP freshly re-installed and I love all the options in settings plus the browser layout.

I'm also interested in privacy.

The one privacy option I really miss is the Https Everywhere add-on available for Firefox.

I was wondering if you have any plans to integrate a 'force https' option?

A wipe everything on exit option (like Browzar) would be fantastic too.

Thanks so much for your amazing project!

Tools -> Privacy -> Clear Data -> Clear Automatically...
lets you choose what private data to clear on exit or at start of browser.

Thanks Rodocop!

That's great. Do you know a Mozilla add-on that forces https that works for K-Meleon too? I've just tried a few and it says they are not compatible.

Thanks!

K-Meleon compatibility with FF-addons consists of 2 parts:

1) you are to have the boolean pref kmeleon.install_firefox_extension in your about:config and it should be true

Check this to get sure you make KM able to install FF-addons

2) this part is more crucial - not any FF-addon would work here in KM. And apriori it can be said whether it would or not only for those dependent on GUI-integration (toolbar buttons, live menu items): addons which need interactive integration into the FF-GUI wouln't work here.

Sometime we can adapt FF-addon to KM manually creating macro which will implement simple buttons (calling or toggling some commands or functions) and static menu items.

Those highly interactive cannot be adapted without some coding.

So I don't know whether HTTPS Everywhere would work even basically in KM. I don't use it. Try it yourself considering p.1 from above.

Fully installs in 76bet2 and probably works. See rodocop's answer for what to do.
If You still have problems please reply to ask for a more detailed how 2 since I did more than he suggested to force the install and immediate compatibility of firefox addons.
