I've got:

Flashgot (for intergration with download managers)

Disable targets for downloads (prevents download links opening a blank window)

Restart Firefox (adds menu item and a toolbar button to restart firefox)

Stop-or-Reload Button (combines the stop and reload button)

Searchbar Autosizer (dynamically resisez the search bar as you type)

OpenDownload (mimicks IE's 'open' download function)

Nightly Tester Tools (to force incompatible extensions to work, only on recent trunk builds though)

Basics (adds a new tab button to the tab bar)

Minimize to tray (kind of self explanitory this one)

tab x (adds a close tab button to each tab)

wellRounded (rounds the address and search bar)

Menu Edit (customizes the menus)

Fasterfox (performance and network tweaks)

Status buttons (lets you put toolbar buttons in the status bar)

That makes a grand total of 14 extensions, and will probably keep growing.

just about to get all in one gestures (its amouse gesture thing)

I don't use nearly as many extensions are you guys do, but I'm still looking for some more to help. Currently, I have:
  • GameFox -- This is a little extension to improve the GameFAQs message boards. It includes a Quick Post option, easy quoting, Username highlighting, and some other cool things.
  • AdBlock -- I think everyone should have this. If you don't know what it is, it makes Advertisements go bye-bye.
  • Linkifaction -- This makes all http:// links that are not hyperlinks turn into them. Basically, makes text links turn into clickable links for the lazy.
  • IE View -- This simple extensions allows me to view the current page in Internet Explore via the contex menu, which saves time.

Greasemonkey: I use it sometimes, not a lot though
Ad-Blocker Plus: Is installed, but I turned it off. If I'm accessing a web site for free, it's fair to view their ads so they get the money for it.
PDF Download
Chatzilla
Web Developer
IE Tab
Anonymouser: Opens a tab with anonymouse.org
Domain Details
Download statusbar
GMail skins: Even though I don't use gmail a lot
Google toolbar
Homeland security threat level: Completely useless but I have it anyway because it's kind of funny, it's been at elevated (yellow) ever since I got it

    am totally addicted to some of the extensions without which i cannot open my browser. Rather than
    explaining and speaking about the performance , features and usability of the extensions...it will

  11. Firefox Greasemonkey - Invision Board Tool For Warning
    IPB warning shortcut (7)
    Greasemonkey is popular for Firefox users in making any webpage to give that a little personal
    touch. I found Greasemonkey extension for IPB for moderating WARN feature. You can have lists of
    commonly used warning messages and have it as pull-down menu style when issuing a warning. Very
    cool! The simple thing about this extension is how easy to modify to fit your needs. This
    extension, called IPB Moderator Reasonator (
    http://www.whiteacid.org/greasemonkey/#ipb...ator_reasonator ), shows only when you are at the

  12. Greasemonkey For Firefox
    Alter any page on the net to your liking... (2)
    I'll be honest with you from the start. I use this mainly on MySpace.com. With this extension,
    you can use JavaScript to alter any page anywhere! You can remove the ads off of specific websites,
    you can even customize the stylesheets if you know what you're doing! If you've ever been
    on MySpace.com, you know the annoying home page with all the ads and announcements. Well I have made
    my own script to clean it up a bit to match my profile. Here is a screenshot of my MySpace's
    homepage: http://ihave.goldbananas.com/others/myspace_home_new.jpg I've ad....

    ads? Of popups? Of flash ads? Well adblock lets you remove all of them. The interface is great,

  14. New Rapidshare Hack For Firefox Users
    (21)
    QUOTE The hot new Firefox plug-in takes browser customization to a whole new level by letting
    users filter site content or change page behaviors. The glory of open-source software is that it
    allows anyone with the inclination and the scripting knowledge to get under the hood and hot-rod
    their computing environment. But most of the time, that advantage is available only to people with
    the programming skills to make the changes they want. That's where Greasemonkey, a free plug-in
    for Firefox, comes in -- it simplifies hacking the browser. Released at the end 2004....
