    I like
    Codetch Editor (The greatest extension for web-masters)
    Tab Effect (not really usefull, But looks great)
    Google Preview (really, really usefull, I got tired of going to silly pages)
    session fix (If you want to save your browsing this is a cool tool)
    ImageBot (pretty fast for uploading pics)

    I like the President Bush Countdown (694 days), StumbleUpon, Resurrect Pages, ReminderFox, and FoxyTunes. You should check them out...

    Here's my top....eight :)

    IE Tab allows some websites to open in Internet Explorer, because some sites don't support FireFox. So the web page will open with IE, but within FireFox, so it's more secure.

    NoScript is a nifty little thing that will disable JavaScript and other malicious coding from website. Now, if any website stops working the proper way when you install this, just right click the NoScript icon in the bottom right corner of the page and enable it for that website. That way, not every website will be able to use the scripts, and only certain ones will. It's still much safer than allowing them globally, plus anyone else using your computer who doesn't know what they're doing won't be able to use it :)

    Adblock blocks stupid Ads that can sometimes cause lots of problems, but are mainly just very annoying. You'll start seeing spaces for Ads that are blank because of this wonderful baby.

    Fasterfox speeds up page loading times. It's that simple :)

    Adblock Filterset.G Updater is something that will automatically update Adblock's list of Ads so you're always more secure.

    United States English Dictionary just adds new words that are accepted to FireFox's spell check. In case you weren't familiar, FireFox v. 2 has a built-in spell check, so if you're typing in a form on like a Forum, it'll underline misspelled words. This just adds more words to it.

    CustomizeGoogle is an amazing little thing that can remove the Ads from Google, add in search results from Yahoo, Ask Jeeves, etc. all into Google's window undetectably, and it alters the image searches so you can click on the image just to view the picture, rather than the website. It's an awesome tool that you'll have to work the options out yourself on.

    GooglePreview adds a little thumbnail next to each Google search result so you can see what the web page looks like before you click it. I thought it was an awesome little tool :)

    O my god? You forgot Adblock!!!! That is like the best add-on ever.. It disables ANY ad that pops up or any advertisments//

    Tab effect is nice but very slow...
