Hello Friends,
Firefox is the most popular browser used by many Internet users in
Windows, Mac and Linux.Mozilla add-ons site offers billions of extensions that
will help all the users including web developers. The
add-ons are always up to date so there won't be any compatibility
issues. Of course, you could go your
entire browsing life without installing an extension—many people do—but
without them, Firefox isn't the Web-surfing powerhouse it can be.
Choosing the best
Addons from this flood of extensions are complex one and you need
patience to test every add-on. So that, i have taken this job for you
and brought you the Best Firefox Addons. They're
free, after all. You'll see just how useful they are.
1. Adblock Plus
This is the best Adblocking addon in firfox. Adblock Plus gives you countless
options to disable all, some or selected ads. You can select a filter
subscription when you start Adblock, which will block most ads
automatically without your having to specify. You will never see that ad again.
The most exciting thing about this add-on for me is that it'll bypass
adverts that you have to watch on video streaming sites such as 4OD and
Youtube.
2. DownThemAll!
DownThemAll! is a tool which allows you to download all of the links shown on a web page at once. It's a highly customizable download manager that lets you pause, resume,
accelerate and automate your Web downloads. Best of all? It offers the
option to download all the images or links on a page. Using this addon the download could be between 30% - 60% quicker than without the accelerator.
With lots of small features, such as a beep to signal a completed
download, it becomes a very versatile add-on. It's easy to use and
definitely well worth a try.
3. Thumbnail Zoom Plus
If you want to see the full image, you need to click through to see it
on the site. With this extension, you hover your mouse over the thumbnail
to see the full image. It supports a wide variety of different image hosting sites, popular
Internet destinations, and the majority of thumbnail to image links. One of the most interesting features of Thumbnail Zoom Plus is that it
not only supports images that are directly linked, but also many
indirectly linked images.
The list of supported sites reads like Amazon, Baidu Images, Bing Images, Facebook, Flickr, Google+, Google
Images, IMDb, LinkedIn, Netflix, Pinterest, Reddit, Twitter, Yandex,
YouTube, Wikipedia, Yahoo Images, & many more.
4. NoSquint
If you’re
endlessly irritated by small text and horrible color schemes. The creators of
NoSquint programmed this unique Firefox addon to control font sizes,
background color and text colors for all sites. It remember your zoom levels and color settings per site, automatically applying them when you return.
5. X-notifier
WebMail Notifier is a basic add-on that checks e-mail for a variety of different types of e-mail accounts.
This program appears as a small envelope icon within Firefox's status bar. X-notifier (aka WebMail Notifier) checks your webmail accounts and notifies the number of unread emails... WebMail Notifier also
supports a variety of different e-mail providers, including gmail, yahoo, hotmail, POP3/IMAP, facebook, twitter and users can configure the application to check
multiple e-mail accounts.

7. Personas Plus

control and easier access to new, popular, and your own favorite
Personas. Change your Firefox theme
as often as you like with this simple, effective freeware. Personas is

Firefox designed to enable you to switch local proxies in the browser.
It places a shortcut in the Tools menu. It enables you to define your own proxies and to
manage the existing ones very easily. You can configure the proxy

9. FastestFox
This addon is
everything you need to browse faster. All the features are geared to
improve your browsing speed and efficiency. While you are viewing a
page, FastestFox will download the subsequent page if it appears in a
series. Then, once you move on to the next page, it will download the
next, making navigating through multiple pages an absolute breeze. Be
sure to download this addon if you research frequently online. If you regularly research on the Web, FastestFox is your new best friend.
10. IE Tab
Some websites remain stubbornly coded explicitly for Internet Explorer,
especially where Microsoft-centric products like Outlook Web Access are
concerned. That's where IE Tab comes in; it creates a new Firefox tab
that simulates all the native functionality of Internet Explorer, but
without requiring a second browser.
11. Web of Trust (WOT)
The Web of Trust (WOT) is an add-on which gives every website a rating
dependant on how legitimate it seems. A traffic light system illustrates
when a website is either suspicious or untrustworthy, making sure that
any shopping or banking you do online, is through only the safest
websites.
The database is regularly updated with rating alterations and any new
websites. This means that your browser will be fully up to date when you
next come to use it and you'll be able to surf the web (relatively)
care free.
12. LastPass
LastPass is a free online password manager and Form Filler that makes
your web browsing easier and more secure. Also for IE, Safari and
Chrome. Your sensitive data is encrypted locally before upload so
even LastPass cannot get access to it. The web interface is a great way to manage my logins and groups.
13. SkipScreen
Do you ever download files from sites like Mediafire, Megaupload, zShare
and Rapidshare? Tired of having to wait to download your file?
SkipScreen will automatically download your file for you when the timer
runs out. Instead of having to sit there, watching a 60 second
countdown, you can carry on with whatever else you were doing, safe in
the knowledge that your download will take care of itself. There are an
increasing number of sites that it works for and it really is a great
time saver.
14. Lazarus
Lazarus securely auto-saves all forms as you type, so after a crash,
server timeout, or whatever, you can go back to the form, right click,
"recover form", and breathe a sigh of relief. The data is kept on your PC, so it's pretty safe.
15. TinEye Reverse Image Search
TinEye is a reverse image search engine. The plugin adds a right-click
menu item that allows you to search for an image to find out where it
came from, how it is being used, if modified versions of the image
exist, or to find higher resolution versions.
Install Image Search
