Because I like to keep Firefox's search box defaulting to something else - means I've got Google and IsoHunt searches at my fingertips.

I found the trouble with using NoScript was that some links rely on JavaScript to operate. When clicking on those, it used to take me a few moments to remember to enable JavaScript. Then it's also necessary to decide if JavaScript should be allowed for the page. Sometimes, entire menus may not appear if JavaScript is disabled.

I turned to Adblock for blocking ads. Browsing within a sandbox is good as well. This way it isn't necessary to lock the browser functions down with NoScript for any security reasons.

Re: Recommend me some Firefox extensions
 

THE most useful extensions IMO:

1) Adblock plus (pretty self explanatory)
2) Adblock plus: Element hider (lets you block specific bits of web pages - VERY handy!)
3) DownThemAll! (Download manager - again, VERY good! lets me get 2.4MB/sec from www.gametrailers.com, whereas if i use the standard firefox downloader, i get about 1/2 that!)

Some I use

all in one gestures - use mouse to navigate
British English dictionary - spot thows speling errers befour yu submyt
Foxmarks Bookmarks Synchroniser : store bookmarks centrally and sync different copies of Firefox
IE Tab (MS only) : for those sites that insist on IE.
Paste and Go : does what it says really
Print : adds print to context menu
HTML Validator/Web developer : check how that site is coded.

For the really geeky : Greasemonkey - essentially write your own filter to modify any page any how you want.

Maybe they ought to write a "Firefox Extension Recommender" extension?
