Favorite Firefox Extension

What is your favorite Firefox extension?
(This is not asking what are ALL your extensions, simply your favorite, or top 2)

My favorite:
Adblock

I have used Adblock for awhile and then when I went home for winter break, I had to use Internet Explorer for a month and it was awful. All the pages I visited I got so many distracting ads instead of the decent web pages I visit now ad-free.

Though simple, I'm a fan of CopyPlainText, as it's incredibly handy when copying code examples and stuff from web pages.

Googlebar, Adblock, Bookmarks Synchronizer, and Tabbrowser Extensions are a must on all my firefox installs.

Sometimes, they do, but the developer drops the ball and doesn't issue an update. For unofficially updated versions of old extensions, check out The Extensions Mirror - "Completing your XPI'rience".

If you have any extensions that you can't find there, ask in here again.

I don't have any extensions, but I do like some of the firefox hacks. I think everyone knows about the hacks (and the pitfalls of some of them...) but here's a site that served me well enough. I think that I was able to locate some of the problems in linked forums, etc. from this page, as well as some decent hacks.

BTW, WHY are these extensions so great...don't just name, expound for the rest of our benefit.
In that light, I like some of these "hacks" because they've sped things up, and helped with firefox crash issues...I have had the most trouble with opening .PDF files, but I think some of the # of request hacks might have helped. Then again, I'm probably telling you the wrong hack is responsible for allowing me to open .PDF's with fewer problems.

But I digress...
