Wohhh nice thread! Just installed iMacro! That thing is awesome! Thanks for sharing! just was getting sick of that adsense and adwords login process every day 100 times...
 
Usually it's a good idea with FF and plugins/addons. But if you install one "bad" addon, it fu**s you up the whole FF. I kicked out all addons after I spend one hour each day only waiting for FF to load pages.

and what if you search for the "bad addon" and remove just this bad one but not the others? firefox without addons is just (the best) browser...nothing more :)

my favs: adblock plus, foxy proxy, greasemonkey, better privacy, password exporter, skipscreen, flagfox, webmail notifier

ohh, i almost forgot, one thing is missing (maybe just for me) from firefox which function is in the opera browser: making a copy of a page to a new tab with one (two) single click...yup, there's a shortcut in ff for this: click into your address bar, press ALT+ENTER and you get a copy of the page on new tab, maybe there's an addon, script to do this in ff too, i dunno...

Firebug
http://getfirebug.com/
a must-have for the webdeveloper
 
Greasemonkey - with Google Anonymizer, Web Dev toolbar, Img like Opera, Search Status, Live HTTP Headers, Google Global, Better Privacy, Adblock Plus, Download Statusbar, TACO...
 
WebDeveloper and FireBug
Its very helpful if you code sites

Seo Quake

Adblock Plus with easylist
for stopping ads being displayed
 
seoquake
nodofollow
measureit
eye dropper
meebo
 
I used to use SEOQuake, nodofollow, search status...but now I use Keyword Spy's SEO/PPC plugin. I love it since it not replaces the previous 3, but it can also do what Brad Callen's PPC Spy does as well. It's faster, more accurate, and has so many functions. I love it. It's my new fav.

I also use:

Multi-proxy switcher
User Agent-Switcher
WF Formatter
No ********(I like to be able to see the blue Do follow links highlighted)
 
SearchStatus - gives me Alexa and PR ranks immediately which is helpful when building links

How is the Multi-proxy and user agent switcher working for ya? Do they preform as the name inplies?

Compact Menu 2 - Great little drop down menu
SeaQuake
Xmarks - store bookmarks and passwords. Easily transfer to other computers or if you end up doing a rebuild
FireFTP
IE Tab - VERY IMPORTANT everyone should use this. It lets you run IE functions when needed
Facebook Toolbar
Stumble Upon Toolbar
