Firefox: howto open hxxp or other obscured links automatically
- by fyodor78
howto open hxxp or other obscured links automatically with Firefox (without copy and paste manually)?. For non obscured links I use Linky Firefox add-on
From Wikipedia
hxxp://, sometimes h**p:// or _ttp://, is used in URLs (web links) to
obscure the fact that one is linking to a http:// website. It is
generally used to avoid automatic recognition by computer programs.
For a user to follow this link, it is usually necessary to manually
copy-paste the link onto the web browser's address bar and replace the
'x'es with 't's.

I use RefControl, so security is not an issue.
