IMHO Linkify > Paste & Go

Nice list! I use quite a few of those everyday. A few that i use or have used, that may or may not have been mentioned in comments are:

The Filterset.G updater for Adblock (works with Adblock Plus too i believe). It keeps your block list up to date…works too. Batchdownload…will download all the images or image links on a site…useful for grabbing multiple wallpapers or something. Paste and Go 2…allows you to copy a url, right click on the address bar and “paste and go”. A little more convenient for me than ctrl-v, enter sometimes. Spiderzilla…useful for mirroring a site.\

Some that were mentioned and i also use…Downthemall, Fast Video Download, Foxmarks, and Gmail Notifier.

LOL! Cheater!

But yeah, Bad Behavior only blocks bots. It lets normal users with normal user agents (even if spoofed) through without questioning.

I’ve used UA Switcher for ages, great plugin :D

You only need to change it back to a “normal” browser – Bad Behaviour doesn’t (and can’t) detect if you’re using Firefox or Safari etc ;)

That’s probably the Bad Behavior plugin which doesn’t allow bots to post comments. I’m not blocking the Googlebot from indexing. I just won’t let it add comments here. ;)

I just found another one, well, rather re-found another one. It’s called User Agent Switcher (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/59) and it let’s you change the User Agent of your browser.

I’ve used this in the past when testing mod_rewrite rules for Apache. It’s not something you’d normally use on a daily basis.

Today I was searching for the answer to an Exchange question and ran across an Experts-Exchange page where even the Google cache link wouldn’t show the solutions.

I did a quick search and ran across this blog post:

Apparently, you can simply change your browser’s UA to mimic one of Google’s search bots to get around EE’s silly block.

One thing to note (which I found trying to get back to this site): change your UA back to default or Terminally Inchoherent.com will block you! :)

noone mentioned “secure login” so far? this is a great enhancement for autofilling of forms, but it prevents password stealing with evil JS.
If you have to install Mozilla apps for a living you might want to look at the CCK wizard which is an XPI packager for your own customizations (written by an IBM colleague).

@Steve – I use both actually. I needed Adobe lately to open some funky documents created with the latest Adobe Acrobat that had embedded forms and other objects – so they were not really PDF files as per standard. It sucks, but what are you going to do. :(

@STop – ah, ok. That makes perfect sense. And you know what – I think I actually had this extension installed at one point long time ago. It might have been called something else though. :P

@ Luke – I’m afraid I expressed myself terribly! Launchy/Katapult and the Launchy extension are two completly different things. The extension does stuff like “Open current page in Opera” or “View source in Vim”, etc… Works with both Lenux and Windoze.
I use it for instance to launch a page in different versions of IE (IE4, 5, 6 & 7 in Windows, IE5 & 6 in Wine/Linux).
(and btw, yes, you can install multiple IE versions, for testing purpose.)

I noticed you mention you use Adobe? Why not switch to foxit pdf reader? Way smaller, no bloat, and does the same thing.
