Firefox primary password question.

[kronoSX]

Is this a good practice for extra security or is it useless if someone gains entry to the computer.I was more looking for a solution to password lock the firefox app but apparently there is no such thing being offered by mozilla.I read about kiosk mode but i dont think that is what i need.

I need something that locks the firefox browser from any user on the computer or network.Only a password will allow the use of it.

PassBrow blocks access to the Chrome browser, allowing no access to browser data, bookmarks, settings, internet, etc.

It is very simple to use, just access the extension options and register a new password. After that, you can lock Chrome by reopening the browser, clicking the Lock pop-up button, pressing the shortcut key Ctrl+Shift+9 or Command+Shift+9, typing 'pb lock' in the address bar, or accessing the Lock Browser option from the menu of context.

Another very interesting option is to be able to block access to certain sites by accessing browser options and adding to the list the sites you want to block.
