What is the Sandbox?

The sandbox contains untested add-ons submitted for publishing on the AMO site.

If you are not comfortable installing add-ons that may be extremely dangerous to your computer, you should click here to return to the public site.

As long as you register with AMO (addons.mozilla.org) you can download that extension just use it at your own risk.

This is a bit of an old thread, but I thought I'd throw in 2¢ anyhow. After reading through I found a couple of new extensions I didn't even know existed. The Google Helper is quite nice; and so the one for VZ Wireless to keep track of one's minutes.

I did at one point have UnPlug to grab Flash video off sites

deciding it wasn't really needed any more.

Adblock Filterset.G Updater is not needed for Adblock Plus. Also, you might want to dump Fasterfox and use Grail Knight's settings in your user.js file instead. If you do, reset your tweaks to normal before uninstalling, then make these changes:

I've seen at other forums where a list like this, not necessarily for Firefox, is maintained in a nice organized manner. The original post is modified to include a layout such as the following:

Where the required votes could potentially increase as more people post and the votes start piling up. A person would vote by just stating there lists like we do already, while the original post gets updated.

Anyways, just a suggestion. Now onto my addons :).
- Adblock Plus: Required for a nice complete ad-blocking solution
- All-in-One Sidebar: Allows for an Opera like sidebar which can provide instant access to many useful features such as addons, history, bookmarks, etc.
- DSLR Notifier: I don't think this addon needs any explaination ;).
- MinimizeToTray: Helps keep the toolbar uncluttered by removing Firefox from the toolbar when minimized.
- NoScript: Disables unnecessary/annoying scripts and provides extra security.
- OpenDownload: Allows you to open downloads like with Internet Explorer without the need to save the file first.
- Organize Status Bar: Self-explanatory :).
- SwitchProxy Tool: Allows for easy proxy switching without the hassle of manually changing the proxy all the time.
- Tab Mix Plus: Essential for convenient tabbed browsing.

Ever since i reinstalled Firefox due to the hanging problem i had, I only installed the add-ons that I need.

So, here are my current Add-Ons:

-Adblock Plus: Element Hiding Helper 1.0.1
-DOM Inspector 1.8.1.6
-Flashblock 1.5.4.1
-PDF Download 0.8.1
-StumbleUpon 3.06

After reading this topic, I removed/am removing:
-IE Tab (lite version = better)
-Fasterfox (no use for it, manual tweaks seem better)
-StumbleUpon (no use for it as well)

I will add:
-IE View Lite

One of the reasons is because the author of that extension insists on using an incorrect setting for prefetching which doesn't do anything what so ever. Unless I hacked the extensions it didn't really work, plus why would I go through all that trouble when I can implement everything the FasterFox uses with the above link.

- FEBE (Firefox Extension Backup Extension, lol a mouthful)
Backs up all your Firefox extensions (other than itself :)) in a folder of your choice. Also does history, Firefox preferences, cookies, bookmarks (but I don't use it, see below why) and other backup settings too.

- Foxmarks Bookmarks Synchronizer
Sign up for an account online and allows you to upload all your bookmarks in one place. If you have multiple computers, Foxmarks keeps all the Firefox bookmarks in sync with the server. Of course I keep a hard copy of my bookmarks too.

- Tab Mix Plus
A nice all in one tool for tab solutions. Gets rid of the need for standalone extensions like FLST or Duplicate Tab or Session Saver. Highly highly configurable.

- Rewind/FF buttons
Helps quite a bit if you've got an image gallery or something that you can 'fast-forward' through.

- Stop or Reload button
Hey, you don't need to press stop AND reload :). So when a page is loading it'll turn to stop, and when a page is stopped it turns to reload.

- Gmail Notifier
I know Gmail has their own app. But this one is so much more configurable. It allows you to check multiple accounts at the same time, something Gmail's app can't do.

Other not-so-essential but useful/cool extensions:
- ChatZilla - IRC client right in your browser, has all the functions mIRC has, very cool.
- FoxyTunes - if you listen to music while FF'ing, then you need this. It controls your music player from within the browser and supports so many music players.

I'm still browsing through this thread for some more extensions to add to my ever-growing list :). I haven't found a need for ad blocking yet though. I find that my anti-spyware/virus utilities (Spy Sweeper and NOD32) does a good enough job keeping away this stuff.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18572339 Tue, 26 Jun 2007 20:41:53 EDT Re: [FireFox] Essential Firefox Addons http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18570926 ZZZZZZZ : Just a few in one of my profiles...I like to try different extensions to see how they work with the different profiles I use! :)

I note that IE Tab is on Mozilla'a page of Problematic extensions. The page was last modified 15 June 2007, so it looks like IE Tab is still thought to possibly cause a problem.

Here are the addons that I now consider essential, at least at times:

NoScript 1.1.4.9 - I don't feel safe browsing without this one anymore once I venture from known, trusted sites.

Add Bookmark Here 0.5.5 - I have a lot of bookmarks, with deep subdirectories, I can't live without this one anymore either.

Adblock Plus 0.7.5.1 - I don't like ads so I use this on most of my profiles. I don't recommend it for those visiting my sites though ;)

Forecastfox 0.9.5.2 - Gives me a nice summary of the weather and an easy way to get more details when needed.

Autofill Forms 0.6.1 - I have only been using this for the last month or so but it helps a lot when I am submitting my sites to the various web directories. I tend to not trust new addons unless I know others (usually one of the respected posters in this forum) who have used it, this one I broke that rule after reading the author's forum, he seems to be a good guy with a good tool.

One that I use at times but I have to caution others about is the Google Toolbar. As a website owner I at times want to know the page rank of sites and this addon makes that easy. BUT Google has a terrible privacy policy so I only use this when I take precautions to protect my privacy from Google. If you use Google, or any of it's tools, you should read the recent reports by: Privacy International]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18542490 Wed, 20 Jun 2007 21:41:36 EDT Re: [FireFox] Essential Firefox Addons http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18526931 anon :

I run others, but I consider these three absolutely essential to any FF install.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18506717 Thu, 14 Jun 2007 16:28:48 EDT Re: [FireFox] Essential Firefox Addons http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18506651 wafen :

said by technovert

:

I really run a pretty stock firefox, haven't experienced too many addons, and have decided to begin trying some, so I ask users of Firefox, what addons do you use on a regular basis?

• Adblock Filterset.G Updater 0.3.1.0 - Synchronizes Adblock with Filterset.G
• Adblock Plus 0.7.5.1 - Ads were yesterday!
• CookieSafe 2.0.6 - Control cookie permissions.
• DownThemAll! 0.9.9.10 - The mass downloader for Firefox.
• Dr.Web anti-virus link checker 1.0.14 - Scan link target with Dr.Web anti-virus
• DSLR Notifier 1.2 - DSLR/BBR IM and updated post notifier
• IE View Lite 1.3 - Cut down version of IE View by Paul Roub.
• McAfee SiteAdvisor 26.3 - A McAfee SiteAdvisor Firefox Extension for safe searching and browsing
• Menu Editor 1.2.3.3 - Customize application menus
• MR Tech Local Install 5.3.2.3 - Local Install power tools for all users. (en-US)
• NoScript 1.1.4.8.070523 - Extra protection for your Firefox: NoScript allows JavaScript, Java (and other plugins) only for trusted domains of your choice (e.g. your home-banking web site). This whitelist based pre-emptive blocking approach prevents exploitation of security vulnerabilities (known and even unknown!) with no loss of functionality... Experts will agree: Firefox is really safer with NoScript :-)
• PlainOldFavorites 1.0 - Use Internet Explorer Favorites directly from Firefox
• PrefBar 3.3.4 - A toolbar for quickly accessing and changing common preferences, run scripts and many more...
• Print It! 0.3.8 - Adds optionally a print and print preview option to the context menu and provides a button for printpreview.
• Tab Mix Plus 0.3.6 - Tab browsing with an added boost.

Ones I wouldn't do with out.
