Default Firefox Add-Ons

On Digg, I always see articles like"30 firefox extensions you should have" and stuff like that. Usually I find most of them to be crap, and about the only useful ones are download status bar and maybe one or two more.

Just wondering if you guys have seen any lately that you find useful.

Yesterday I downloaded one for Craigslist that shows the ad's pics right under the title, so no need to click on the ads to see pics. Today I got a real nice one for FF and Thunderbird that allows you to minimize to the system tray. Great for when the boss walks in to minimize H.S., lol. and a far as Thunderbird, well thats a feature it really needs anyway.

Stealing B's idea of just posting the screenshot, here's mine.
Greasemonkey/Platypus and Adblock are the two I couldn't live without:

I have Adblock, but I ended up disabling it since i don't really use many sites with obnoxious pop ups

I love using the IE addon, it makes life easier when crappy sites will only allow you to view it with IE cough cough Verizonwireless.

hmm, I'm gonna try this one. I have an online math course and they have it set up so that you can ONLY use IE. Even the instructor complains that it is crap in his syllabus, as he is a mac guy i guess.

Nevermind. It fucking crashed FF. That piece of shit site doesn't even run correctly on IE, i guess i can't expect too much of it. Every time that I go to close the IE window, it always freezes up and i have to use the task manager to end the process.

VZW works fine for me on Firefox.

I just have Fasterfox, Greasemonkey, and PDF download. I think I'll try Apple's Safari or something like that for a bit though, supposedly faster than Firefox.
