The Best Firefox Add-ons of All Time

Add-ons that you need to install right now:

-Adblock Plus
I hate advertisements. You do too.

-Download Statusbar
The default "Downlods" pop-up window is annoying. This add-on a convenient solution.

-Fasterfox
Fasterfox lets you get the most out of a high-speed connection.

-Foxmarks Bookmark Synchronizer
This is an absolute MUST-HAVE for anyone who uses FF on multiple computers.

-Tab Mix Plus
I've been using this as long as I've been using FF. Customization at its best.

-Organize Status Bar
Tired of add-ons adding useless icons to your status bar? Not anymore.

-Menu Editor
Change your context (right-click) menu. Another example of true customization.


Add-ons that you should check out in the near future:

-Tiny Menu
Puts File, Edit, etc. under one menu.

-NoScript
If you use Windows, consider this one in the top group.

-FireFTP
Great, unless you prefer an external FTP client.

-Foxytunes
Allows you to control iTunes, Windows Media Player, etc. from inside FF.

-Mouse Gestures
Perform various tasks by drawing shapes with your mouse.

-Forecastfox
For when you're too lazy to type in "weather.com".

-Cooliris Previews
Mouse-over previews of search results on Google and so forth.

-Colorful Tabs
This add-on is surprising helpful.

-Chatzilla
An IRC client for FF. How nerdy can you get with one program?

-Flashblock
Turns flash animations into a "play" button, allowing you to choose whether to view them.

-Copy Link Name
More handy than one might think.

-Sage
The best RSS reader for FF.

-Unofficial Myspace Toolbar
Only helpful if you use Myspace.
