One of my first posts was about essential firefox extensions for the latest firefox. Pchere got a step further and compiled a list of 50 firefox extensions all neatly sorted and explained in various categories including file downloads, Privacy / Security and Web Searches.
As I said every extension has a short description that explains its main features. The author unfortunately missed to mention the version those extensions require but claimed that most would work with the latest firefox version 1.5.

Interesting list and you’re right it is a shame they didn’t confirm Firefox 1.5 compatability.
I expect we’ll have some comments on who uses which extension, so I’ll kick it off 8^)
Noscript, Adblock (with the FitersetG updater), ForecastFox, Tabbrowser preferences and Nandu (HTML editor).
Some of these are pretty cool and I was not aware of them, but you are right – it would have been nice to specifically mention those that are compatible with Firefox 1.5
I suspect others who comment will list their favorite extensions, so here are mine at the moment:
Adblock (with the filtersetG updater), Forecast Fox, Nandu (handy-dandy HTML editor), NoScript, Tabbed Browser Preferences .
Sorry, did not mean to post twice (three times now!) – I am getting old and feeble minded!
