Best Firefox security addons?
kartal:
I already use noscript which is great. But what else do DC people use for security inside Firefox. I looked at the Firfox addon topic but that has become so long that it is kind of impossible to read and try all those addons. More content spesific Firefox addon page like security addons would be more appropriate at this point I think.

I'd recommend AdBlock Plus and Distrust to complement NoScript.
If you also use a proxy (like me), you might find FoxyProxy useful.
Those are all I use within Firefox. :) All my other security software is running under Windows or up on my gateway hardware.

the usual suspects have already been named. check out AMO's "Privacy & Security" section to see if there's anymore you want to add.
kartal:
Lanux I was trying to compile a list based on addons that Dc users like:)
Here is another one I like.

I prefer YesScript, it's a NoScript spinoff that allows JS globally but lets you blacklist invidual sites. I use it more as a performance enhancer coz I've noticed some JavaScript-heavy sites really bog FF down.
