My favorite Firefox extensions:
Personal Menu

- Replacing the original menubar into a single menu or icon.
BookmarkMenuHider
- Hide the useless menu items like "Bookmark this page, Subscribe to ..." in Bookmarks menu!
autoHideStatusbar
- Auto-hide Firefox statusbar.
Basic Bookmarks for FF3
- Using 'Unfiled Bookmarks' AS the bookmark sidebar
- Reduces the wasted whitespace in the sidebar

Google Notebook --Direct install

Default FullZoom Level -- New extension works in FF3.5.
- Set a fix default zoom size, useful for high-resolution screen
FireGestures
// All-in-One Gestures
- Mouse gestures: never need to click back and forward button!
Download Statusbar
- The "Downloads" window of Firefox is quite slow and obtrusive sometimes (3.0 is better now!)
- This extension shows the downloading status friendly
FlashBlock
- Opened too many tabs? Use this extension to block the CPU-hogging Macromedia flash!
Forecastfox Enhanced

UnMHT
- viewing/saving MHT file in Firefox
CHM Reader

- Use this to view pages in IE :(
GMarks --Latest Beta Version
- Maintain all your bookmarks on Google for easy access at anywhere
- (but the memory consumption is huge when you have thousands of bookmarks)
