Firefox --3.5-- Extensions: Your favorite or most useful
HankFriedman:
I love tree-style tab because I have a 24" monitor and keep many tabs open all of the time. It allows you to place the tab bar on the left side of the screen vertically, which works really well.
I also love Colorful Tabs, which allows you to color-code tabs and thereby find the one you want much more easily.
And I use Resurrect Pages often to find earlier versions of web pages that have "died".
Others of much value are:
WOT - Web of Trust protects you from surfing to dangerous pages
Update Notifier - a priceless add-on that alerts you when extensions are updated
Thunderbird Biff - to quickly open Thunderbird
Split Pannel - works perfectly to see two different web pages side-by-side
Scrapbook+ - a truly great webpage capture utility that allows you to save webpages in user-named folders. No more losing a webpage that has been abandoned.
Save Link in Folder - I save astronomy photos in my spacegifs folder, wallpaper in my wallpaper folder, downloaded executables in my downloads folder, etc. and this add-on makes it easy to do
Auto-copy - This has to be one of the most useful of all, you just highlight text on a web page (or email) and it copies it automatically to paste elsewhere. Great!

I love Vimperator more than any other FF extension. It has some learning curve but if you are a Vim user this is the deal.

Two of my most indispensable v. 3.5 extensions are "Scrapbook" which captures and saves web pages ,saving a lot of printer ink and "Go to Top", an add-on that instantly takes you to the top or bottom of a page rather than scrolling up or down.
Innuendo:
"Go to Top", an add-on that instantly takes you to the top or bottom of a page rather than scrolling up or down.
