In the same vein as the must have programs thread, I wish to start a thread about useful or irreplaceable Firefox extensions. Not so much about the well-known ones lke TBE or Greasemonkey but I guess the 'other' extensions that make it hard to ditch Firefox. In descending order of recommendation:
Super DragAndGo - drag a link or picture and it'll open it in a new tab, fucken handy when you get used to it
NoScript - per domain Javascript+Java+Flash whitelist
Tab Mix Plus - TBE but without all the bloat that I don't use
SessionSaver - real working session saver unlike TBE's random works, sometimes recalling old saved sessions functionality
Image Toolbar - configurable, IE image toolbar, makes downloading those *ch pictures easier
Menu Editor - No more twenty-entry context menus! I right click and only see three or four entries, woo! Works on toolbar menus too.
Hit-a-Hint - I like to web-browse with keyboard only sometimes. This extension makes it easier by defining a magic key that when pressed, will label all the links on screen with numbers. Enter the number of the link you want to open, let go out of the magic key and the link will be followed.
