Legal Question in Technology Law in Utah

Is it illegal to change/alter a website with a firefox plugin?

basically i want to create a plugin/toolbar for firefox to alter the way websites look, ie, the size of a div, the color of the background, add images and links to the site, maybe even change the links to go somewhere else.
