lifehacker.com — Last time we compiled our must-have Firefox extensions, it was two years (and one browser version) ago. Our new list keeps some, tosses others, and remains our go-to, Grandmaster list of the best Firefox add-ons.

I'll definitely check out that Automatic Save Folder extension. I've got everything else that I need.

Yes, thanks for the correction. The damn wobbly box didn't let me look over what I wrote so I couldn't easily check for spelling.

The neat thing is, there can never really be a list of "must haves" for everyone since everyone browses differently, and has different preferences. Personally, a lot of those ad-ons aren't for me, but the lovely thing about Firefox is that I can make it into whatever I want. I use:TinyMenuAdblock PlusGMail NotifierGoogle Reader NotifierMozilla Weave (I don't like Foxmarks since the most recent update)Theme: Black Steel
