Question:For the add ons for FireFox (I'm pretty sure its an add on) there is something that I've seen other people with but I'm not sure what its called so I'm going to try to explain it as best as I can.
The toolbar at the bottom of the screen (where the start menu is on the left and the clock is on the right) there is something you can get where it magnifies the shortcuts you can go to such as aim or itunes (and i think even the web pages you have open) and you scroll through as it goes across from side to side. and magnifies the middle ones.
Does anyone know what it is called or where I can find it on the extensions page?
I am not sure what u are asking but there is magnifier in windows.
go to start menu/ programs / accessories / accessibilities / Magnifier.
I dont know if there is any magnifier ad on.

No, there's no add-on in firefox which lets you achieve what you're talking about . You may have seen other people using the windows magnifier or the xp power toy 'taskbar magnifier' or they must be using some other specialized magnifier software.
For windows magnifier, click on Start > Run , type in 'magnify' (without quotes) and hit OK . Here in the dialog box which opens configure magnifier settings if you want to.
The other magnifier is available as a 'power toy' for windows and its called 'taskbar magnifier' , where it sits in the taskbar(toolbar at the bottom of screen) and magnifies whatever you mouseover. It also magnifies notification area shortcuts(shortcuts beside the clock) if that's what you are talking about. It is a microsoft product too but not included by default in windows. Download and install it and see if that is what you are talking about. Get it from here: http://www.download.com/taskbar-magnifie... and click download now or from here: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downl... and click magnifier.exe
After installation, activate the taskbar magnifier, by right clicking the taskbar and select toolbars > taskbar magnifier.
Hope that helps.
