firefox plugins you cant live without?, post what you use Options

[lagos]

one of the coolest things about firefox are the plugins... post what plugins you cant live without and what they do


image zoom: great plugin that lets you zoom into any pic on a website with your mouse wheel. very usefull

forcastfox: tells you the current weather in the bottom of your browser

customize google: lets you control how google displays and searches for things, it even modifies the google website to remove ads and other things.

down them all: one of the best things ive found. with one click, you can download every pic or video from a website, instead of having to right click on every single video or pic someone posted

RIP - remove any object with a right click, and also disable them from coming up again.

Sessionsaver - keeps your most recent tabs up if firefox crashes

Snapback tab - opens last tab you closed (if you get anxious and click the wrong one, or two, etc)

Reloadevery - reloads page every (xx) increment of time - great for ebay, watched threads.

tabbrowser preferences - makes tabbed browsing easier - scroll wheel on tabs cycles through, double click = close/reload.. etc

getfirefox.com

its a web browser like IE. the cool thing about it is that its faster then IE and has lots of "extensions" you can add onto it. these basically add new features to the browser. there are lots of cool extensions being developed every day, so you can have a lot of cool features that totally change the way you browse the net.

click on tools/extensions.... then look for "get more extensions" in the right corner. it will take to to a website with tons of extension. install them by clicking the install button on the website. then restart the browser and the plugin will be installed
