Firefox plugins
Cooliris was pointed out in another thread. But I found it to be too intrusive.
However, I do find these two useful: Google Browser Sync - keeps my work and home bookmarks in sync. There are other synchronizer plugins out there, but I already had the google id from having gmail. IE Tab - There are some sites that are strictly tailored for Internet Explorer. But I prefer Firefox in all other things. This plugin uses the IE component to embed an ie browser in your Firefox tab. Means I don't ever have to use IE now. Any other useful ones out there? |
Ad Block Plus and Accuweather

Adblock Plus is awesome.
FireFTP is another good one. |
I mentioned Flashblock in another thread. I don't block all ads but I do block Flash and selectively let it through on places like YouTube.

ShowIP
Web Developer Total Validator MeasureIt LinkChecker Colorzilla I've used these from various troubleshooting and web design activities. |
I also use
Download Statusbar - put download status in your status bar where it belongs. ChromaTabs: color your tabs according to what site they're on. All my Cellar tags are red, all my Gmail tags are blue, etc. makes it easy to remember where you are. Gmail Notifier: number of unread Gmail msgs in your status bar. |
I can spend hours using StumbleUpon.

These are the ones I use:
NoScript AdBlock Plus IETab ChatZilla FoxyTunes Gmail S/MIME VideoDownloader Verisign EV Green Bar Extension There's more that I have used in the past (CustomizeGoogle), but I don't because of issues. |
Adblock Plus
del.icio.us DownThemAll! Faster Fox Forecast Fox Google Notebook IE tab |
Download Statusbar
DownThemAll! Flashblock Gmail Notifier GreaseMonkey (There's a Greasemonkey script that makes linked Flickr pics in bbcode) ImageZoom Tab Mix Plus |
Even before going to FF, I had accumulated a setup that keeps my machine sparkling clean...
Zone Alarm as a firewall - Free AVG Antivirus - Free Pestpatrol - I paid for it once I ran a full scan w/Pest Patrol followed by an Adaware scan, and came up w/nothing but a few cookies...this after about five months of daily hard use. I'm happy. |

Mouse Gestures Redox
I especially like being able to keep my hand on the mouse and navigate/control the browser. By far, the most frequently used gesture is Back, which is defined as a RtClick-LeftMove. That sounds more complicated than it is, really. All of the gestures need a right click and some motion, usually defined by a clock direction, so the one described above would be listed as L9. Easy peasy! |
