How to Uninstall Speedbit in Firefox


Speed bit is a search engine - that gets installed when you install some Open Source or Utilities on the net.
This gets installed as the default search engine for both IE and Firefox.It may be a good and bad thing at times depending on what you are searching. It replaces the default browser search engine like Google or Yahoo. So, it maybe frustrating each time to select Google or your default search engine and do searches.
The remedy in that case is to remove this search engine.,

Loose lips sinks ships.

This is an American phrase for 'beware of unguarded talk'.  The context is the recent deportation of 2 English nationals who said something over twitter that was not taken light by the host country US.

So, social media has to be used very carefully so as not to offend others and be sensitive to others when using media like twitter/micro blogging sites and also writing stuff on the net.. even if the intent was not to harm others - there can be instances that across cultural barriers this can lead to misunderstandings.
