Must Have Addons for Firefox and the Best Way To Use Them
OK, I have been using firefox for a while now, and I have found a lot of fun and NECESSARY addons.
First up, Down Them All. this is just a must have for anyone. I don't care who you are, this addon is for you.
This addon allows you to download everything at ridiculous speeds. I am downloading a 45 minute video as we speak, and the ETA is only 8 minutes. Offers resumable downloads at ANY time. Best used in conjunction with Unplug. (See below) The download manager is a bit hard to find the EXACT file you want to download, because it scours the page for every last damn thing. That's why Unplug makes a perfect teammate for it.
Unplug
This addon catches media in the webpage, and almost always works without fail. It is very simple and easy to use, and a must have tool. Absolutely.
SoThink SWF Catcher
A must have for hackers. Catches almost any swf in the page, including ones Unplug can't.
Adblock +
Stops almost all ads. Great to have.
Better Privacy
Deletes LSO cookies when Firefox is closed. No, not the ones you need, just the unnecessary cookies that slow your browser down.
SoThink Web Video Downloader
Experimental (Works just fine) addon for fast video downloads. An alternative to the Unplug/DTA combo. Not as fast though.
FasterFox
The name says it all. (Experimental, works great)
FireDownload
Faster downloading through the default download manager. Nowhere as fast as DTA.
I hope this helps any Firefox users out there looking for decent addons to help with daily tasks. Give me feedback and leave your suggestions for addons here as well!
Oh look, my video was done downloading a long time ago :D

I do believe some LSO cookies are used to save your progress in flash games...

Then don't use better privacy.
The other ones are still relevant though.

I was reading the description for the add-on and it kept talking about cookies added by flash files...
If it isn't saved flash game progress, how did I have 1552 LSO cookies...?

I thought they were "must have"
(BTW, it's must-have, not must have.)
Re: Must Have Addons for Firefox and the Best Way To Use Them
Well, if you don't want the addon, it's not a must for you now is it?
Either way, I'm sure I at least brought one addon you haven't heard of...
