Quitomzilla is a Firefox, Thunderbird and Mozilla Suite extension that aims to help you quit smoking while you surf the web or wait for new emails.
Quitomzilla appears as a small icon in the application (browser or email client) status bar. When you pass the mouse pointer over this icon, a tooltip will be shown giving the information about cigarettes, money and time saved:
Quitomzilla raises an alert notification every time you reach a "milestone". Here, you can see a 24 cigarettes milestone alert:
Note: This characteristic is not available on Linux systems, since the Mozilla alert popup windows are not available for this OS. Instead, Quitomzilla shows a flashing text indicating the milestone in the status bar.
Moreover, Quitomzilla adds an option to the textboxes context menu of web browser called "Paste text":
After clicking this option, the (configurable) information about cigarettes, money and time saved will be pasted into the textbox:
This option is also available in Thunderbird and Mozilla Mail message composition window:
