More FireFox Hacks and Tweaks

The website ihacked.com has a great set of FireFox tweaks. If you missed the piece on speed-boosting Firefox, click here. otherwise, load up on these goodies:
-------------------
"One of the sweetest thing about Firefox is the ability to use extentions. At the time of this writing, there are 226 extentions that we can use to make it better.. I will only touch on a few of them that I use. (Alphabetically Sorted)

Adblock: Remove inline ads.
Bookmarks Synchronizer: Save your bookmarks to an XML file, and sync with an FTP server. Keep your work/home bookmarks current!
Digger: Navigate to parent directories, switch to ftp equivalent of site, climb subdomains, etc.. Very helpful in "scouting" a site.
Download Sort: Automatically send downloads to specific folders based on file's extention.
Gmail Notifier: Lets you know if you have new gmail
Google Pagerank Status: Lets you see the Google PageRank of the page you are visiting.
refspoof: "Spoof" your referer.
Spiderzilla: Download an entire site to a local directory.
Super DragAndGo: Drag a link to blank space on a webpage, and it will open it in a new tab.
SwitchProxy: Manage and switch between multiple proxies. Make sure to read my article on finding and useing proxies.
User Agent Switcher: Switch the user agent of your browser.
x: Gives a Toolbar "paranoia" button, click it and it can clear history, form info, saved passwords, download history, cookies, & cache."
