Exclamation Firefox Extensions

I've been downloading some Firefox extensions, and there's sooo many to look through. I thought I'd make a topic dedicated to organizing the best Firefox extensions into topics.\

Cool Tools
Website Integration
Gmail Manager - You can check multiple gmail accounts in one handy toolbar in the status bar. Automatic updating. (Firefox 2.0 compatible)
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1320/

ImageBot - Easily uploads multiple images to Photobucket or ImageShack. Automatically creates code for forums.
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1174/

Program Integration
FoxyTunes - Integrates your favorite media player into Firefox. (Firefox 2.0 Compatible)
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/219/

IE Tab - Easy switching between IE and Firefox. Great for things like Microsoft Downloads and Yahoo! Music. (Firefox 2.0 compatible)
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1419/

Special interests
Image Zoom - Zooms in to any image on any website. Use for whatever you need it for. (Firefox 2.0 compatible)
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/139/

Web Developer - Adds a menu bar with tools for web designers, such as showing table borders and editing CSS Styles. (Firefox 2.0 Compatible)
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/60/

Simplicity

https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/613/

Media

Little Helpers

FoxyTunes (controls your media player)
Adblock Plus in combination with Filterset.G (removes almost all ads)
Save Link in Folder (lets you save dl'd files in diff folders rather than all in one folder)
URL Fixer (fixes typos when entering URLs for example it will fix "www.google.con" to "www.google.com")
ImageBot (lets you upload images to Photobucket or ImageShack and lets you easily create the html code for images for display on forums)
