Hello,
I was told in #fsf I should contact this list regarding the IceCat Addons 
window. It would be very nice to integrate your own search engine on this page:
https://www.gnu.org/software/gnuzilla/addons.html

In this way the Tools>>Addons window can work similarly to firefox but only 
offer fully free solutions.

Addtionally I'd like to suggest the following on their current webpage:

Remove these addons:
1) Remove AdBlock Plus, it recently has had a variety of ethical issues:
http://www.salon.com/2013/07/05/adblock_plus_lets_some_advertisers_pay_to_play/

2) Remove Scroogle, it's not functional any longer since the search engine went 
offline - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/scroogle-ssl-search/

Add the following:

1) Add Adblock Edge, this removes the "unobtrusive advertising feature" by 
default:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-edge/ (MPL License)

2) Add UAControl https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/uacontrol/ (MPL 
1.1/GPL 2.0/LGPL 2.1) and User-Agent JS Fixer 
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/user-agent-js-fixer/  MPL - both 
useful dev and/or privacy addons

3) Add CleanLinks https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/clean-links/ 
(MPL)

4) Add Seeks.fr search... similar to the old scroogle one you had - 
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/seeks-fr/ AGPL license

5) Add https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/secure-sanitizer/ (GPLv2)

6) https://code.google.com/p/https-finder/ (MPL)

7) https://code.google.com/p/gprivacy/ (GPLv3)

8) https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cookie-controller/ (GPLv2)

9) https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cacheviewer-continued/ (MPL)

10) http://www.webpg.org/?view=downloads#ext-firefox (GPLv2)

Thanks! :)
