As the title says, what extensions do you have installed in your FireFox? Mine are:

Adblock (name says it all)
Allow Right Click (Lets me right click even when a site has a "block" on right clicking)
Bookmark Backup (Self Explanatory)
Download Manager Tweak (Small modification to FF's download manager)
FoxyTunes (Lets me control various media players like Winamp from within FireFox)
Gmail Notifier (Lets me know when I get a new GMail...Email)
Image Zoom (Zoom into images within FF)
Tabbrowser Preferences (More options for tabbed browsing)
TinyURL Creator (Lets me make a TinyURL without having to go to the site)
Translate (Translate a website easier)
BugMeNot (Lets you bypass having to register for a site, if a Login/Password is available)
undoclosetab (Self explanatory - "Unclose" a tab I may have accidentally closed)
FireSomething (Gives FF a variety of different names)
StatusBar Clock (Self Explanatory)
Nuke Anything (Temporarly "Nuke" something on a site ie: an image)
ForecastFox (Local weather within FireFox)

Decided to summarize each extention for anyone who may not be sure what one is and is too lazy to go find out :p

I'm a big fan of FireFox. I downloaded their version of Outlook. Never got around to using it, is that any good? One of my favorite features was dl. They made it so simple. Nothing extra to open up.

I would go into what I use, but I can't seem to remember right now, since my stupid dog pissed on my laptop. I will get over it... promise.

I had tried Bandwidth Test but it was too unreliable when it gave results so I got rid of it awhile back. Maybe I'm just an isolated case

I've only used it a couple of times, but it seems to give ok readings. Maybe I have a more reliable version?
