Warning
Greasemonkey 0.6.4 is available as an archive only. Use at your own risk. For safest results, always use the latest release.
Install Greasemonkey 0.6.4
This is the first official release with support for Firefox 1.5. The major change is that, with the exception of unsafeWindow, all objects that user scripts have access to are XPCNativeWrappers . This makes user scripts vastly more secure since there is no way for content scripts to hijack function calls.
Other Changes
- Monkey Menu - Right click on the monkey for the list of scripts which match this page. You can easily enable and disable them from this location. You can also enable or disable all of Greasemonkey, or access the Manage User Scripts dialog.
- New Install UI - When you load a user script into the browser, a banner is displayed across the top of the script explaining what it is and giving you a chance to install. Also, stopped using the download manager in favor of a more subtle status menu message.
- New Injection System - We now use evalInSandbox to execute Greasemonkey scripts. This is more secure than the old system, but wasn't available without improvements which arrived in Firefox 1.5.
- Remove script preferences when uninstalling - We now provide an option to remove user script preferences when uninstalling.
