Favorite Firefox Extensions?

Posted by Cliff on from the customize-your-browser dept.

vwjeff asks: "Extensions are perhaps the greatest feature of Firefox. On my Firefox install, I use Foxy Tunes, AdBlock, IE View, Mouse Gestures, and Forecast Fox. What extensions do you use on your Firefox install? (assuming you use Firefox, of course)"

    The ones I use:

    Themes:

    Nautipolis by Alfred Kayser -- Never seen Firefox looking better.

    Extensions:

    SessionSaver -- backs up your session in case of normal shutdown, crash, or manual save

    Bookmarks Synchronizer -- will synchronize your bookmarks vias FTP/SFTP, and save it in XBEL format, which you can by adding a XSL sheet, make a pretty looking webpage (and also convert it into HTML if you want)

    Tabbrowser Preferences -- gives you "tab" power

    GreaseMonkey -- will allow javascript plugins which modify behavior of pages

    GreaseMonkey Scripts which I use:
    Slashdot recolor, google maps zooming use mousewheel, and moveable-type stylecatcher.
