Topic: Firefox: What extensions do you use?

I just upgraded to the newest version of Firefox, and somewhere along the way wiped all my extensions - and bookmarks, and pretty much all my other personal settings - but anyway, it dawned on me that I probably wasn't using the browser to its full potential, since I never really bothered to look for addons.

So, my question is simple! What extensions do you use with Firefox, and why?

Life... is like a box of chocolates. A cheap, thoughtless, perfunctory gift that nobody ever asks for. Unreturnable, because all you get back is another box of chocolates. You're stuck with this undefinable whipped-mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down when there's nothing else left to eat. Sure, once in a while, there's a peanut butter cup, or an English toffee. But they're gone too fast, the taste is fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits, filled with hardened jelly and teeth-crunching nuts, and if you're desperate enough to eat those, all you've got left is a... is an empty box... filled with useless, brown paper wrappers.

Google Toolbar is SO not an extention.

Is there something easy I can use to restart a download from where it left off after my net crashes?

I've downloaded other things but I never used them, so I don't bother anymore

Nothing. Stock Firefox does everything I need.

What do you guys use the google toolbar for? I tried it out and the only thing it did over stock firefox with aspell was take up a whole bar of screen estate.

Not the built in one, the new Firefox version of their IE toolbar Google released last week, which really is an extension.

Spell checking forms, PageRank, AutoLink, Form Fill. I know that there are other separate extensions to do this, but I like the way it's all implemented together.

EC is like SA except with less members and a higher tolerance for annoying people. Also, EC has been boring for the past year or so, at least if I try to treat it as a forum which I can refresh all the time and hope for a new post or two. :/

I tried reading SA, but it just moves too fast during prime times. I'd literally click on a two page thread, read the two pages, and by the time I clicked to go back to the main forum the thread I was just reading, which was number two or three at the time I clicked on it, had already scrolled off the first page.

So I gave up trying to read more than a thread or two a day. >:[

I don't even read GBS very often. Ask/Tell (okay so that's sub-GBS), SH/SC, and occasionally AI when I'm really bored.
