Re: Firefox Extensions, Which do you use?

I just added Firefox for my wife to the desktop. There is a chat room (Lab Retreiver Board) and it raises heck with my computer.

So, now the wife uses firefox and loves it and I am on IE7.

Some ungodly pile of them!

Adblock
DownThemAll!
Image Zoom (Running 1600x1200 mode, this is important)
DisableTargetsForDownload (Prevents blank windows when downloading)
Greasemonkey (I'm only using this with a script to get lat & long off google maps)
Fasterfox
Wayback (Right click on dead links and run them through the Wayback machine)
mplayerplug-in (Linux thing)
SpellBound Development (Spell checker for Iboats. :) )
Text-BGcolor Fixer (I don't think this really works... )
Stop Autoplay (Disables autoplaying music and movies)
Flashblock (I got sick of ads with soundtracks. A little annoying but worth it)

I've got to check out some of those ones though. FireFTP eh?

Foxytunes
Foxclock (great for travel or anyone that deals with time zones)

Shazou


Never could get forcastfox to work w/o crashing FireFox so I just place Accuweather.com links for the regions I am monitoring in that area up above the FireFox tabs area.

Try "forecastfox enhanced". That's actually the one I use. You can get a button on the bottom that pops up a radar which is why I chose it over the regular version.

Thanks, i386. I'll look into the enhanced version of forecastfrox (didn't know there was one).
