Written by Mozilla Firefox is an open-source web browser. Below is a list of my favourite add-ons I use:
Mouse Gestures Redox
A brilliant extension which means I can navigate around the internet just using my mouse, I mainly use it to navigate backwards and close tabs, but it is capable of so much more.

IE Tab
For those websites that will not work in Firefox (or Opera) you can use this extension, it allows one click toggling between the Gecko and Internet Explorer. It can also be configured to always load specific URL’s in the Internet Explorer rendering engine (useful for Windows Update).

FireFTP
Creates a FTP client built in to Firefox itself, launching it creates a new tab in which you can FTP to any number of accounts that you have setup, useful for quickly uploading a file whilst updating the website.

Web Developer
A very useful extension for any kind of web developing, I have used this extension on many occasions to help diagnose layout problems that I was having with CSS. I especially like the CTRL-SHIFT-F command which changes the mouse cursor to highlight any component on the page which can then be investigated further.

BugMeNot
BugMeNot.com is a website where people can post anonymous login details for any website, useful if you want to read that one news article but it is asking you to register first. With this extension you can automatically query the website and submit the login form.
