for those who don't know, you can customize Firefox (henceforth FF) to it's fullest. different themes (which include border colors, custom menus and buttons, etc...). extensions are sub-programs that run while FF or thunderbird is running.

click tools, then themes (or extensions) and bottom right, click get more ...

here's what i have, with a short description

Firefox 1.6
Black Japan theme

Talkback - Mozilla crash reporting
IE tab - allows IE only pages to load in FF with a simple click
Forecastfox enchanced - on the bottom right of any FF window, a radar and forecast icons show the current and future weather
ChatZilla - the FF IRC chat client
Google SafeBrowsing  - checks websites for phishing or fraud
google Send to Phone - text message people's phones
Blogger web coments[/b  - lets me see what people write about this site (appearantly i have one for SimV)
[b]Foxytunes
- allows me to control Itunes (or any media player) via a control menu in FF.
Mouse Gestures - instead of clicking buttons to refresh, go forward, go back, close tab, etc... i can draw certain lines to do this.

Thunderbird:
Black Japan theme

talkBack
Foxytunes
Mouse Gestures

I've only seen a few I really liked. Don't care for themes (funky colors, icons and whatnot), but these extensions are great:

Tab X:
adds a close button to each of the brower tabs

BugMeNot:
Bypass compulsary web registration with the context menu via www.bugmenot.com

Card Games:
A collection of patience cards games

I need IE Tab...

I have:
Forecast Fox
Aquatint (Theme)
Chatzilla

Where do you get the Google Safe Browsing and the Foxytunes? I think they might be worth a look...and Google Send to Phone sounds cool too..

Cheers,
