So which extensions do you use?... and leave a explaination what it does if possible

I use the following

Adblock Plus - Blocks adverts and certain images
Menu Mod - Adds extra options:)
Public Fox - Stops people messing around with my settings
StumbleUpon - Finds many random sites

Adsense Notifier -- displays adsense earnings in statusbar
All-in-One Gestures -- can't live without this one: execute commands with mouse gestures
Tab Mix Plus -- another essential
Scrapbook -- Excellent for storing interesting webpages
Super Drag and Go -- makes it easy to open links in a new tab
Resizable Textarea -- stretch those small textareas to a decent size
Pear crescent PageSaver -- screen capture utility
 
Items not on you list:[in no particular order]

User Agent Switcher - Allows you to fake signatures of browsers, and allows you to fake the installation of megadownload tool bar(which has way too much spyware)

Tabbrowser Preferences - more tab preferences and control

SwitchProxy Tool - Very handy for switching between Saix transparent proxies when downloading from Rapidshare.

Stealther - When enabled does not allow cookies, cache etc to be stored.

Session Manager- Allows you to restore firefox to which ever state it was even during power failures :) Also allow e.g. you to pre set windows in a particular way with tabs that can be loaded. e.g. support sites, all teh forums loaded in one click as you left it.

Server Spy - Check out what Webserver the site is using.

PDF download - lets you choose if you want to download/view/save and open in acrobat etc handy

PageStyle2Tab - sets the tab to the same html/background style as page so your tabs look different for websites.

ImageZoom - right click on any image and scroll and the picture gets bigger :)

GoogleNotebook- Take/Make notes for later review on any page, you can also grab bits of the website you capturing including pictures :) with they'd integrate it with blogger.

Google Web comments - make comments and blog to blogger.. broken with new blogger accounts :(

FlashGot - forces downloads and can autocollect downloads/links to download manager of your choice which it auto detects

Cutemenus Crystal SVG - makes firefox look kick a$$ with nicer icons in your pull down menus.

Customise Google - duh no more ads :)

CacheViewer - So you watched a youtube movie or flv file or list to music.. but want it, this lets you get it from cache and save it :D

Adblock filterset.G Updater - updated lists of new advert sites to block
 
fasterfox
tabmix
adsense notifier
ie tab
google toolbar for firefox (dont like the default one)
 
Cool extensions, thank you. Now would someone please help me with switchproxy tool, more specifically the anonymous facility - how does one get proxies?
 
Adblock Plus
Google Toolbar
NoScript

Don't like running too many add-ons at once, hogs resources.

Add them as standard. then choose the open that makes it appear on the bottom/status bar :) so all you have to do to force http traffic thru a prox is right click and lef click on your chosen one.
