SEOpen
This one is my favorite. Here is the breakdown.

Current SEOpen features are all accessed through right-clicking an open area on a web page or by using the new toolbar; they include:

* Yahoo Backlinks
* Pages in Yahoo Index
* Google Backlinks
* Google Cache
* Pages in Google index
* Google Translate to English
* Google Related
* PageRank Check
* MSN Backlinks
* Pages in MSN Index
* Alexa Overview
* Alexa Traffic
* Alexa Related
* Alexa Backlinks
* "Mass Check" multiple sources at once
* Check DMOZ Inclusion
* Keyword Density
* Page Size Checker
* HTML Validator
* Server Header Viewer
* Wayback Machine
* Check robots.txt
* Whois Info

Planned for future versions:

* Yahoo & MSN Cache
* Spider Simulator and/or Text Browser view
* IP-based Search Engine Optimization tools
* Toolbar Option

Google PageRank Status
It acts exactly as the real googlebar on IE: calculate a checkum, send a
request to google.com (with the googlebar User-Agent string), and the reply
contains the pagerank.

Monster Blog Sack
The Monster Blog Sack toolbar allows users to surf blogs (according to your categories of interest,) sack (a MBS rating system,) tag, search, share, and add blogs to favorites.

Adsense Notifier
Displays your current earnings in the status bar
NOTE: Latest update download link is here

Stumble Upon
StumbleUpon lets you "channelsurf" the best-reviewed sites on the web. It is a collaborative surfing tool for browsing, reviewing and sharing great sites with like-minded people. This helps you find interesting webpages you wouldn't think to search for.

I use a few more, but these are my favorites.

SEOPen is an all time favorite. It's very easy to use and readily available.

I have just discovered it when I am browsing the net for some Search Engine Optimization plugin for firefox, to ease the checking of sites rank and other without typing in the search form.

I'm a Stumbleupon addict...and have talked about it on this forum many times.
I also love firefox. It's both fiery.....and foxy (lol)
I'll have to check out this tool. Sounds great & thanks for the detailed info :)

I've been stumbling for the last 10 minutes. A daily stumble is healthy for the soul.

FF extensions I use:

Stumbleupon - channelsurf the web
1-Click Weather - see the weather forecast for the next few days
Fasterfox - speed up FF
Update Notifier - update FF, extensions, themes etc with one click
Adblock Plus - block annoying ads
Adblock Filterset.G Updater - keep Adblock Plus updated with the latest ad filters
Customize Google - customize Google search results
Back Is Close - Back button turns into a close button if there is nothing to go back to
IE Tab - view a page with IE rendering engine from within FF
FEBE - back up settings, extensions etc
Broadband Speed Test And Diagnostics - test the speed of your broadband and check for problems

Does Faster Fox really work? I wanted to try it out, but I'm not really dissatisfied with the current speed so I don't know if it's worth it.

IE Tab - view a page with IE rendering engine from within FF: I'd like to hear some more about this. Do you have a link?

[Calum]

IE Tab - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1419/
(I'm new at this so don't know how the link above will look or work...)

Fasterfox - it works, but it's worth reading up on it as some people say it has degraded the performance of their FF
Most of the options available you can do from about:config, but it's a lot easier to have them in an easy to use interface, plus Fasterfox incudes some features/enhancements not available in the about:config tool
I find Fasterfox has really made a difference to my FF, it's a lot faster now than before
Also worth trying is Firetune - Totalidea Software: Tweak Windows Vista - Vista Tweaks - TweakVI - Tweak-VI - Tweak-Vista - TweakVista - TweakXP - Tweak-XP - Tweak XP - Registry - Regedit - Windows Tuning - Windows XP - Windows Vista - Tweaking - Optimize - Tweak - TweakUI - Outlook Backup - OutNote - Outlook Notes - Outlook Add-In
I fidn this has also made a difference to my speed
