I need my computer to cycle through tabs in Firefox after it is displayed for 10 seconds or so. What free macro program can do this? If this cannot be done, is there a free program that will cycle through each open window?

Yes. For firefox there is a plugin called "tab slideshow" which cycles through tabs automatically. Go here to download it:

Then I would imagine, after it's installed, in Firefox click on the "Tools" menu, and there should be a Tab Slideshow button, and in there will be a setting for how long you want the time intervals.
=) ohhh I'm awesome

hmmm
you want to alt-tab your windows automatically?
are you thinking of something like the way a powerpoint presentation flips through slides at a specified intervals? similarly you want a program that will flip through your open MS Windows programs every 5 seconds or so?
seems like a simple program. do you know any computer languages?

Dude... your question is not right "free way".. what does that mean???
and as far as doing something on a computer without using the keyboard and mouse............until you have a voice recognition software to do that for you, that is not possible, cause you need to have a physical action to perform any task.

Sure. You can write a macro to do it. Save it in a folder and then use it when needed (but how will you activate a macro without using a keyboard or a mouse...)

You need an input device to tell the computer what to do. Are you expecting a program to jump between windows in a cyclical fashion, or do you want it to read your mind?
