The only addon I use is FireNES. Its just a built in NES emulator with a crap-tonne of games...fantastic for distracting me from important work related things.

NoScript
Speed Dial

I have alot more at work, like the web developer one, fangs, etc. I also download a bunch of stupid ones at work that I read about in my RSS feeds. I had one that allows you to open pictures in a new tab, it's neat but I never use it.

I used to have FasterFox on my other laptop...I should get that again!

Now, on a slight off topic but still sort of on topic.


Which Theme do you guys use on FF?

I use Noia eXtreme.

Good thread. I never ever use Internet Explorer, so I'll look some of these up. I don't really have any extras on my FireFox.

Sorry guys. Talking about or promoting any ad-blocking software or add-ons is against the rules.

Thanks for the heads up Rin! I never knew Firefox was so customizable. I started using it a couple years ago when IE used to hang every second time I used it.

I just installed that NASA Night Launch theme... awesome!

Firebug
YSlow
"The One That Shall Not Be Named"
1Password
DownThemAll
Fast Video Download
Greasemonkey
ImgTag
MeasureIt
RefControl
Stylish
Web Developer Toolbar

--

That being said, I've been finding that with every subsequent Firefox release it gets buggier, slower, more bloated, less reliable, and more aggravating. I need Firebug for my job but have been finding myself going back to the well with Safari more and more and only launching Firefox when I absolutely can't do what I want to do with the Webkit inspector.

But then again, I'm a huge friggin' nerd who will talk your ear off about Ajax security and YQL and HTML5 and such.

You're welcome. It is extremely customizable, not only can you add tons of add-ons and change the theme but you can also add/remove items on your toolbar. I like a very simple toolbar so I have just back, forward, reload, stop, then a linebreak, then home, history, downloads, and then my 1 extra that I can't mention lol. Then below that is my web address bar.

I see I'm the only one using Speed dial, it is one of my favorite add-ons.

You can set 9 websites per group, and then it's just 1 click to get to each site.

Flashblock (which has nothing to do with That Which Shall Not Be Named) -- makes Flash-heavy sites like tsn.ca much faster to load.

Thanks for posting all of your addon's people. I mainly use the web developer kit but some have been listed here that I will defintely try out.

Looking for a good keyword addon for SEO work.
