Mine has to be just typing in the name of the site without the .com at the end with FF using the "I'm feeling lucky" feature in google to take you to the site.

Anybody else?

It has to be the aggressiveness of blocking ads using some extensions like Adblock, Cookie culler and URL id.

Tabbed browsing, especially with the SINGLE WINDOWS extension.

Or basically the EXTENSIONS themselves.

Those are nice. I never even thought about including extensions in the thread title. I'll have to check out those ones both of you reference for sure.

Right now I use:

Adblock - Blocks ads on websites (not the same as a popup blocker)
PDF Download - Choose whether to download or view a PDF
NoScript - Extra protection on java scripts
IEView - Opens pages into IE (rarely use)
Customize Google - Enhance google search results removing ads and spam
Bugmenot - Bypass compulsory web registrations

I like the bugmenot extension.. all to often I link to a site to view something and they want me to login.. FRIG OFF!

So I just right click and go "BUGMENOT" and it enters a username and password automatically.. then, BAM.. I'm in the site without the hassle of making my own account.
