Although the slideshowedBy Anonymous on March 18, 2008, 6:50 pmAlthough the slideshowed list gives a good basis for users to build their own suite from, I would have to say that some of my most useful extensions are overlooked, whilst others, which I have no use for, are listed quite prominently. The NetworkWorld List:

1. Greasemonkey Agreed. An incredible extension which allows the web to be trimmed, manipulated or extended from it's current form into a more useful/user-friendly form.
2. IE Tab For a developer, and especially a developer who only has to worry about rendering in one version of IE, this would fit the bill. For me, I use a number of standalone'd IEs in different versions when testing sites to ensure cross-browser reliability.
3. Tab Mix Plus Disagree. The native tab functions of FF2 cover the majority of my use, and in conjunction with Session Manager, I haven't seen any features wanting since I stopped using Tab Mix Plus (which happened about FF1.5).
4. Web Developer Disagree. Whilst this extension does offer some weighty tools to help in development, the toolbar is next best thing to useless and is quite intrusive. Even when the toolbar is hidden, the extra features are not used regularly enough to bother having this one installed, especially with the features offered by FireBug.
5. FireBug Agreed. This extension and it's ability to supervise AJAX actions, CSS rules, HTML source, Load times, etc makes it an incredible and indispensible tool.
6. FoxMarks Bookmark Synchroniser Disagree. I used to use this extension, but have found that the Google Browser Sync offers better functionality.
7. Clipmarks Disagree. But then again, I am not running around and trying to backup the internets.
8. Adblock Semi-Agree. I prefer Adblock Plus.
9. Colorful Tabs Disagree. Nothing but fluff.
10. Download Statusbar Disagree. More fluff.
11. Cooliris Disagree. Nice if you're a YouTube addict, but not for much more.
12. del.icio.us Firefox Extension Semi-Agree. Great if you are a del.icio.us user, and even a nice concept if you are not, but it would be nice if this extension supported other bookmarking services.
13. ColorZilla Agreed. This extension is incredibly useful, especially when tweaking CSS color schemes.
14. FireFTP Semi-Agree. As a quick solution, it is great, but I prefer the deeper functionality of FileZilla for any heavy lifting.
15. DownThemAll! Agreed. Every leech's dream.
16. FoxyTunes Disagree. Just clutter, when Launchy or similar can be used to manage iTunes from any application.
17. ScrapBook Disagree. Again, maybe if you are backing up the internets.
18. McAfee SiteAdvisor Agreed. Nice to have a second opinion right there.
19. Gmail Manager Disagree. I let Gmail manage Gmail - much easier that way.
20. Yahoo Mail Notifier Disagree. Only if you are a Yahoo-er, which I am not.

1. Greasemonkey Being able to create, patch and extend userscripts to make your web experience more painless is a god-sent.
2. Stylish The Greasemonkey of the Stylesheet/CSS world. Great for making the inaccessible accessible and can even be used as an advertising blocker in hiding bothersome elements. (Designers also tend to use distinctive CSS classes for ads, as opposed to CSS IDs or easily identified URLs.)
3. Firebug One of the most useful development and debugging tools in circulation today.
4. Adblock Plus Less ads = less annoyance. Love it.
5. Google Browser Sync Invaluable as it turns the browser from a standalone instance into a meshed set of windows looking into the web. I sync my Portable Firefox with my Home Server, and my Main Laptop and my EeePC and all share the same bookmarks, history, etc.
6. PermaTabs Terrific if you have a set of tabs which you always have open.
7. Session Manager Helps me save sets of tabs for later use, and provides similar functionality to Tab Mix Plus, without overlapping native features.
8. ColorZilla & MeasureIt Measure twice, cut once, and color checking on the fly. Both great when working on layouts.
9. XPather & XPath Checker Great for identifying elements for referencing in Greasemonkey scripts.
10. FoxyProxy Having to work behind a corporate firewall (with two proxies, each with different rules) FoxyProxy lets me pick the best paths to different sites.
11. DownThemAll! As I said - every leech's dream.
12. PhProxy Handy for a second testpoint for site issues (to check DNS propagation, etc.) and to get around proxy rules.
13. GButts If you are a heavy user of the Google suite of apps, this makes navigation much easier (and, in conjunction with a Stylish rule which hides the native Google apps list at the tops of their pages, saves real estate too.
14. Mouse Gestures When performing mouse-heavy navigation (just following links), the ability to go Back or perform other actions with simple gestures in the browser makes life alot easier. Especially when the normal toolbars are hidden.

fire ftpBy Anonymous on October 25, 2007, 10:19 amfireftp is one of my favs.... allows easy ftp transfers with simple drag and drop inside for firefox

Flashblock is a mustBy Anonymous on October 25, 2007, 7:04 amThis extension automatically stops flash from playing, but can easily be enabled by simply clicking once within the frame where the flash is located. This is useful when wanting to hide advertisements and other annoying things that almost every web page has. To be clear, it doesn't eliminate the flash, it just stops it from playing unless it is clicked. You can then choose to always play flash from a particular site. A MUST have!!!

NoScriptBy Anonymous on October 24, 2007, 7:57 pmNoScript is my favorite extension to Firefox. It allows you to control what sites you allow to run JavaScript (or other active content), temporarily or permanently. The default for an unknown site can be set to the safest level, then you can decide what to allow as needed. It is unobtrsuive but still keeps browsing far safer and more controlled.

NoScript is great, allowsBy Anonymous on October 24, 2007, 11:02 amNoScript is great, allows only the ones you aprove of to run.

FF extensionsBy Anonymous on October 24, 2007, 10:17 amStylish is an excellent extension that should be missed. You can get rid of many FF extensions in lieu of CSS code with stylish. There are Stylish code sheets you can down load and it makes your FF implementation less heavy.
