Not sure what has been said so far, not going through, but ehre are what i have so far (appolgies if they have been said already):

Red Shift V3 Theme. I like how it is black and red (+1) ant that it doesn't complicate things, it keeps it all very simple, i can't stand buttons i don't use (+2)

Google Toolbar. Again, it is so i don't have to keep going home when i need to search for something, it is again for the over complicating thing i said before in the red shift theme.

And that is it, can't be doing with finding all the stuff which on paper looks incredibly useful, but that will never get used

Here's one for the photography buffs around here.

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5673

It is so you can see the exif data of an image in the browser instead of having to download it then opening in lightroom or some other program. Tells you basically everything there was done in camera to make the shot as long as the user left the exif intact when uploading the image to the net.

here are my favs. may already be mentioned but loo lazy to check:

no script - self explanatory

addblock plus - obviously

download status bar - keeps things neat

boss key - minimize to tray

download helper - downloading embedded flash files

full full screen - for a large view when needed. the best if you know keyboard shortcuts

snap links - to open multiple pages at once

bazzacuda image saver - to save images from tabs

febe - to back up your addons/extensions

ive added some more addons

searchbar autosizer

peers - shows you searches from google and other sites as you type in the url box or the google seachbar

smart bookmarks bar - hides the text of your bookmarks until mouseover


just wanted to add that with tab mix plus, you can turn on a setting that allows you to change your tabs by mousing over them.

Vista-Aero is a great theme.


Use Glasser addon and you get the clear background IE8 look. - Works only on Vista and Win 7. No XP support.

Under the grey'd out Add to Firefox button. There is a link that says "older version". Click on that and find the most updated one you can install.





Also,

Compact Menu 2 hides the menu bar so it simulates IE8 to a further extent.

apparently, glasser doesnt like any other tab addons, since it only skinned my top bar, and not the tabs bar. and, it didnt skin the title bar, which i think is because of windows 7.

This is what Glasser does. I also used Compact Menu 2 as listed on my previous post to remove the menu bar.

stop autoplay - great for websites that has a bunch of flash/audio you don't want playing all at once. if you do want to play a file just click on the icon on the page
