The link was posted up earlier, https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/browse/type:7 and search.

Not really, no. I only have 512MB RAM but everything works reasonably fine. It does bloat up my Firefox, but I also generally have 20 tabs open...you'll only know about the speed if you try it youself, though.

......

I'm saying that it DOESN'T slow down my FF. Everything runs normally, hardly any lag. I abuse my computer a lot by forcing it to do so much, but yeah, normally up to 20+ tabs...running all those addons. Works fine on mine.

Firefox is not Photoshop by any stretch of the imagination. -wry-

i only can say that your computer performance is very good, if you don't believe me, you can ask anyone that using firefox, open more tab will affect the performance of the cmputer.
but it is good if your computer can working well

I think you haven't seen your task manager while you are running your Firefox. TRy to view the Processes tab and see the memory usage and the CPU usage.

How you know this?
From the topic I explained all :P?

Yes, password saving is not safe, but I do not mean to ALL stop using it because if you have a firewall and you can control the outgoing stuff, You'll be able to block it .

So, I do not use it for sure, but still... There's not a big chance some hacker will steal ur passwords, except if you are looking around on forums for hacking tools, most of them are binded so they can steal decent passwords.

I think Firefox Add-ons makes Firefox so good.
Look at Internet Explorer, the reason why it's not so popular as Firefox is because the security is bad and even... it has no Add-ons, plus all viruses are working with Intenet Explorer.

Like Google Chrome is very nice but unfortunately it has no add-ons. Google asked some programmers to make it for Google Chrome.
Not sure how it's going now, but I prefer Firefox for Add-Ons, Google Chrome for handy & fast & works fine with Firefox but Internet Explorer is a mess .

A small correction to what sysax has told. There are small number of add-on's available for Internet Explorer. But they are not very helpful as firefox add-on's. For firefox, plenty of add-on's available. FireFox is really works well with selective add-on's.

Yes, there are over thousands of add-ons for Firefox, and that's what I mean.
Internet Explorer has like nothing, almost nothing, and that makes it bad.

I've upgraded to Firefox 3 (finally); and this time most of my addons carried over, except a few of them. (Like Snap Links; someone else did a version instead.) Much much better; I held off upgrading cos the first time I did it was horrible. :S Everything screwed up.

Here is my latest favorite Firefox addon WOT.
Web of Trust, warns you about risky websites that try to scam visitors, deliver malware or send spam. Protect your computer against online threats by using WOT as your front-line layer of protection when browsing or searching in unfamiliar territory. WOT's color-coded icons show you ratings for 20 million websites - green to go, yellow for caution and red to stop – helping you avoid the dangerous sites. Surf safer and add WOT to your Firefox now.

It will make loading the web page little slow. But worth trying.

Using Ie , is definately the worst thing to brows the web with , 1 it takes one year to startup plus , its official , internet explorer is probebly the worst browser in terms of security, and they dont use good adpopup block , everything is just let loose...i hope they can change thing up and make an award winning version some day

Well actually it does look pretty, so some times if i see something i like
i just download it....to mainly view in preview mode or place on a site...I have a site right now but hasnt been uploaded to a host...its not made out of flash , but has flash content on the page, mainly like an animation...well just as it is , its just an addon, its not like you use it all the time but its usefull, but i surely need the flash blocker, cause sometimes i cant bother with flash ads...

And firefox is what i use to save flash files off the web with , since Seamonkey has no such support right now(not that i know of)

By using noscript you can allow and disallow the scripts of the site. It works like if you dont want to see the google ads then you mark googleadservices.com as untrusted and then the ads wont be shown in the page.So no script will run without your approbal I thinks its pretty good addon.
i use it not to see any ads on mozilla.
