Here's a past thread about what FF extensions PCMechers are using:

thanks for the reply but everybody in that list looks like they are just saying what extensions they use, not if they recommend them or not

I think most people would recommend the extensions that they list; if they didn't like them they wouldn't be using them!
At least that applies to my list. |

If you like adblock, and who doesn't, you should get the ablock Filterset.G Updater. It automatically creates a list of urls to block for adblock consisting of the most annoying of the ad mills and keeps that list automatically updated.
Also, flashgot is very popular. In fact it is listed as number 1 on the firefox extensions page. With it you can automatically download all the links on a page or any selected links. |

I decided to go with mouse gestures, foxy tunes, and reminder fox. I can't seem to get mouse gestures to work though

Personally, all I use is Adblock, FasterFox, and the Adblock Filter Updater. I used to have NoScript and really liked it, but got tired of having to right click and allow javascript execution on pages I have never visted before.
I highly recommend the above extensions.
