More Firefox Extensions Goodness

I would like to follow-up on my last post about Firefox extensions. In setting up Firefox, I installed these extensions.

Adblock Plus - Powerful extension to get rid of ad images and banners while browsing.
Adblock filterset.G Updater - Companion extension to Adblock that adds premade filters.
IEView Lite - Simple extension to right-click the current page and view it in Internet Explorer.
Web Developer - Great extension for every web developer. With this extension you can quickly view the site layout, tweak the css, and useful things.
Del.icio.us Buttons - Makes adding new del.icio.us links quick and simple.
Tab Mix Plus - fine tunes the tabbed browsing experience. The built-in session manager is quite useful as well.

What are some of your favorite extensions?

Even better than IEView Lite, at least IMHO, is IETab (http://ietab.mozdev.org/). You can set specific URLs to use the IE rendering engine. Sites that only work in IE are defaulted to the IE engine, e.g. Windows Update. This is especially useful if you have to do a lot of SharePoint stuff.

Regards,

Alex

I recently saw a post that mentions more extensions, but specifically for web developers. It includes the IEtab extention you mentioned.

Personally I don't like IETab. When I used it, I felt like Firefox became incredibly bloated and unstable. After using it for a while, I uninstalled it. I like IE View better.
