It's been a while since my last fave 5, must look and see what they were then. My fave 5 now though are:-

Lazarus - Form Recovery
Saved Password Editor
Secure Log In
Tab Mix Plus
Autofill - Really good (for me!)
X-Notifier

That's 6 I know!

I have lots more too that I use a lot and would miss if I didn't have them like Reminderfox, Stylish, Fireform, Update Scanner and Save File To, but the above are the most valuable to me

Mozilla is my favorite because it contains so many add-on which are very helpful to me.
My favorite add-on is built with. It tells all about the website, which is currently opened in the browser.

Looks like we'll have to get used to doing without a lot of favourites with the changes @ Firefox 57. On my last post here I named 6 extensions - 5 won't work in the new version of Ff.

look like xmarks will no longer be on everyone's top five list. It is going to be discontinued on May 1. Time to start looking for a replacement. I guess lastpass was not making money on it so the stopped supporting it. or It could have been the problems with all the changes Firefox made.

Are there any add-ons which you think are necessary for a safe Internet browsing? I downloaded Firefox, but as it stands now, I just have adblock plus installed. What do I need next?

Ok, thanks. I will check them out soon.
Do you think that uBlock is better than Adblock?

I prefer uBlock but there's nothing wrong with using Adblock. Adblock is certainly easier to use. BTW - use Adblock Plus, not Adblock.

Tab Suspender Firefox Extension

It targets those people who use older computers or just want to reduce browser's ram usage. For this reasons I strive to make Firefox Tab Suspender lightweight and perform as much as it is possible.
