What Firefox add-ons do you use?
I was late to accept Firefox as browser, and I've only added AdBlock to my arsenal.

What add-ons do you find most useful?

2. only 2 for me
ad block and Xmarks.

Ad block is new to me. Not really noticing that much difference yet. Guess I am good at naturally tuning out adverts anyway.

Xmarks is handy for keeping my bookmarks. Particularly for getting the work and home one on the same page, and when decide that its been too long since I wiped the hard drive.

3. Several ...

Depends on which installation I'm using actually.

AdBlock and NoScript are on all of them.

I also use Zotero, which is extremely helpful for compiling citation information for research projects.

Xmarks, formerly Foxmarks, is a tool that allows one to backup and synchronize bookmarks and passwords.

Copy Plain Text is a simple thing that allows one to copy text from a website without the formatting.

Scrapbook, which allows you to capture entire web pages, and Better Gmail 2 are also good ones.
