What are the best Firefox add-ons?

What Firefox add-ons do you personally find most valuable?

They can be useful, time-saving, fun,or whatever. As long as they really make your experience better.

No Googled lists please, just answers from personal experience.
Tip for best answer: M$1.11
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Well to start, and likely ad to later, my top 2 are Ad-Block Plus and ForecastFox

Ad-Block Plus should be self-explanatory, in other words, it blocks any and all ads on your screen so the pages load faster and look a lot cleaner.

ForecastFox, once customized, will tell you the weather in your area, at that time, along with the forecast for the next couple days. Looking for a map of the radar in your area to see when that blizzard is approaching, has that too! Also notifies you of severe weather alerts 9flooding, thunderstorms, blizzards). Clicking one of the buttons will bring up Accuweather.com where you can find a wealth of information about the present and upcoming weather, along with health alerts, like for Spring allergies!

Greasemonkey is also popular, which allows you to create scripts for your websites or tasks you do online. Installing is easy, and scripts are easy to find.

FireShot allows you to take a screenshot of an entire webpage, or parts of it and save them easily and your desired format.

I use a number of scripts from it on Amazon mturk and there's something else i use from it for google. I'm sure if you looked around you could find a number of things to do. :)

Please search for "neog best browser" or "neog " in "https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/collections/" Some of them from my memory are adblock plus, flashgot, xmarks, scroogle, cool preview, read it later, skip screen, quick drag, etc
Sorry it become an old thread

Well I'm using Cometbird which is a a relative of Firefox but much faster, it was recommended to me by Ritzy, (Thanks again ) so I think the WOT add-on would also work with Firefox, it's very good, it rates the safety of wesites before you go to them just by hovering the cursor over the name.It's also very quick to install, it then takes up residence under "tools".
