It would seem there is a lot of firefox fans around the forums.
As a keen supporter i thought it would be an idea to make a list of the add ons i use and possibly people could share theirs ,
that way we may find out about some new ones we wouldn't necessary know about

1: Adblock plus
2: AI roboform toolbar for firefox (needs Roboform program installed)
3: Colorful tabs
4: Cooliris
5: Downloadhelper
6: Googleenhancer
7: googletube
8: Imtranslator
9: Invisiblehand
10: Macafee site advisor
11:Stumble upon toolbar
12:Stylish
13:Tab preview
14:WOT (web of trust)
15:Xmarks ( couldnt have survived without them)
