There's a good download manager called "DownThemAll", which lets you pause/resume/download via multiple threads:

Also, if you use sites like YouTube alot, this plugin will let you download the videos:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3006

Good idea for a thread, BTW!

If you like to have som security while surfing, I highly recomment NoScript. I've been save many times by this extension. There is a slight learning curve as to what website you perminately allow to run scripts, but nothing I found too complicated

Yes, AdBlock Plus is excellent. I like ForecastFox also for weather updates.

Tons of Themes too!

I keep FF as light as possible, I hate overcrowding. The only addons I use are Firegestures to enable mouse gestures for navigation (habits from my opera days!) , an extension to aid malware research and an extension called Personas for decorative themes.
