What Firefox extensions do you currently have installed?

Do you actually use them?
 
Only a few to save resources -

Adblock Plus
Flashback
Greasemonkey
Scrapbook
Stealther

Yes I do use them regularly
 
I don't really know that much about the Extensions, therefore I don't use any. Guess I'm just so happy with Firefox that I don't think about changing it :D

Oh yeah, I do use McAfee SiteAdvisor. Love that thing...
 
Adblock - (I use it regularly. I know there are automatic block lists out there, but I don't want something like that. I only block stuff on pages that have either an annoying amount of ads, vulgar ads, or ad related page layout problems.)
Colorful Tabs - (It does it's thing, but there is nothing really to use on it.)
Fasterfox - (Trying it out. I can't tell if it's doing anything so far, but I guess I like having the little icon with the load time on it.)
IE Tab - (use it sometimes, but generally only on Microsoft's own websites)
New Tab Button on Tab Bar - (I use it. There are other ways to get the result, but I just like having it there.)
User Agent Switcher - (Rarely use it, but I have it if i want it.)
VideoDownloader - (Use it every now and then, but not often.)
 
NoScript, Gmail Notifier, FireFTP, DownThemAll!

I use the first two every day and I find them to be incredibly useful. The last couple generally only for downloading sessions :cool:

CustomizeGoogle
Download Status bar
ErrorZilla (awesome for 404 pages)
Extended Status bar
Fasterfox
Flashblock (great program to make all flash not auto-load, you have to press play to load flash)
Foxmarks Bookmark Synchronizer (sync all my bookmarks between 3 computers seamlessly)
Gmail Manager (great notifier that manages all my gmail accounts in status bar)
IE View Lite
Linkification (converts text urls to click able urls)
Searchbar Autosizer (searchbar stretches to text)
Super DragandGo (drag a url to open url in new tab)
Tab Mix Plus (tabs and session saver)
Tiny Menu (puts all menu into a clean single menu)
 
Adblock Plus
Bookmark Backup (backs up a lot besides bookmarks)
Enhanced History Manager
FireFTP
IE View
MR Tech Local Install
Nightly Tester Tools
Nuke Anything
Paste and Go
Popup ALT Attribute

While the spirit of the thread doesn't fall under this rule I'd caution against mentioning certain extensions.

Hardforum Rule said:
(23) Any discussion of AD BLOCKING software or instruction for using ad blocking regarding this forum or any other discussion in general of attempting to block advertisement will result in a no questions asked permanent ban on your account. This is not done lightly, rather deliberately to deny access to those who choose to utilize this forum, but not support our sponsors. It takes money to finance the cost of bandwidth, especially a forum of this size and if you don't care enough to support us through our advertisers, then we don't need your business. This will be the only warning with no discussion.

While the spirit of the thread doesn't fall under this rule I'd caution against mentioning certain extensions.

I would think that applys mainly to people admitting to, or giving advice on how to block [H]'s ad's.

Similar to as someone else said, I use adblock, but only to block ads that or offensive, or that mess with page layouts. I am displaying the [H] ads loud and proud, and try to always remember to use the newegg banner when I need to visit their website.
 
Still running FF 1.5, and it the portable version.
There only 10 that I don't really use, the whole interface is also rather heavily modded which is why I'm yet to shift to FF 2 since it will take hrs trying to move every thing and retweak.

There is a prophecy that says if a man can install and make use of 100 extensions he will reach a state of zen.
 
I just downloaded Adblock Plus! My theory is that if no ads are loaded, then my dial-up will be faster.

I chose the filter subscription from EasyList. Is that a good thing to do?
