Alpha nerds- think for me! Firefox question
 
So I finally installed this firefox thing. And disappointingly it's as good as everyone says, the ba****ds. So, what else should I fit to this excellent thing? I've just got Adblock for it, anything else?

Don't need much else. I have foxmarks cos I work from several different machines and I like to sync bookmarks, and forecastfox for the hell of it.

I use flashblock to stop flash movies loading up by default. I can't remember if adblock does the same job though, I know it blocks quite a few since most of the flash stuff out there are ads.

Well, so far it's done everything that IE does at least as well as IE does it, and it's faster and uses less resources. I like it most exactly because it's not life changing, it's just IE6 only better really.

I also have installed

plus the British English dictionary and then it will highlight pselling (deliberate) mishtakes when I type on the org.

Also have downthemall and firebug

Check out some themes. Completely pointless but pretty it up nontheless.

I have a rather funky Super Mario one at present.
