Another thread got me wondering what plugins do other people use?

Here is my plugin list.

AdBlock
FlashGot
Tab Preview

Tell me about yours maybe I can find my next favorite plugin. :D
 
I'm sure there was a thread about this.. bit I'll bite.

My *can't live without* plugins:

PDF Download: Prompts you to download a PDF document instead of opening it within Firefox. Why? Because Acrobat's engine sucks and it's prone to crashing Firefox.

Videodownloader: Leech Youtube videos and other embedded video streams.

Answers (I think it's called that, I'm not at home right now) : You can right click or alt+click on a word and get a dictionary reference/meaning.. handy when I'm researching.

Flashget: Integrates your favourite download manager with Firefox

Fasterfox and StumbleUpon eats bandwidth, but has settings to moderate it.
