My favourite Firefox Add-ons

Everybody has their own set of favorite Add-ons. Here are mine:
  • DownThemAll!:
    • Advantages: 
      • Way faster than the conventional download method.
      • Allows pausing and resuming downloads.
      • Works with Video DownloadHelper.
      • Easy to use.
    • What it does: Simultaneously makes 4 parallel connections to the download site quadrupling download speeds.
  • Video DownloadHelper:
    • Advantages:
      • If you can watch a video, you can download it.
      • You don't have to watch the entire video in order to download. Just start the video and the download link will be available - Good if you have a slow connection.
      • You can close the video window after download begins.
      • Have a slow connection? Frustrated with video lag? - Download the video and watch it later.
  • Flashblock:
    • Advantages:
      • Blocks flash applications - They annoy me a lot.
      • Helps if you have a slow connection.
I use DownloadHelper to download videos. DownThemAll works like a charm with it - now I can download videos in no time.

Feel free to share your own likes and experiences :-)
