about:third-party in your address bar to see all the DLLs hooked into your Firefox. All mine were expected (NVIDIA, AquaSnap, DisplayFusion, and Start10) so that's a relief.

Well, goodness. I did this on my work computer and it turns out that something that may have been masquerading as a part of a printer driver (or actually was part of the printer driver) was listed. And the scary part is that after I disabled it and restarted, all of the other ones disappeared.
Printer drivers and utilities are universally the absolute worst... so I wouldn't be surprised if some actually do hook into your browser for no truly justifiable reason. It is weird that all the...

Do you have window snapping, or any of the window management features enabled? Those are what I suspect might require a hook in order to function, but there are also a few more features in the Advanced Settings I have enabled that might be the cause too.
Heh, not surprising. DF has a bajillion features, settings, and tweaks that most people probably don't use, but I wouldn't have it any other way. Binary Fortress is awesome at listening to...
Heh, not surprising. DF has a bajillion features, settings, and tweaks that most people probably don't use, but I wouldn't have it any other way. Binary Fortress is awesome at listening to requests from their forums, which is why it's gotten so bloated over the years. I've been using it for over a decade, back when all it did was just basic wallpaper, window and taskbar management, so I've had time to really dig into its guts and customize everything to my exact liking. I've even requested a few minor tweaks, which they eventually added. :)

Interesting that I have DF as well but its dll doesn't show up for me.

I'm not sure actually. It's funny I've been using DF for several years but barely use any of its features.
