Firefox is the one of the fastest growing internet browsers among the browser war going on between Internet Explorer, Safari, Opera and many others. One of the key factor which makes Firefox very useful is their huge number of Addons available online. These addons literally adds extremely useful features and functionality to your browsing experience. There are 100’s of articles out there which have top 10 most useful Firefox addons listing. You can search on Google for ‘top firefox addons’, and you will get tons of pages of the most popular extensions. So, what is unique about this article? In this article, I am going to show you some of the less known, but equally useful extensions.

1) Multirow Bookmark Toolbar: Accessing the bookmarks from bookmark menu can be inefficient, especially when you use some bookmarks very often. I keep all my bookmarks in bookmark toolbar, so that it can be accessed right from the browser. But the problem with this, is that there is only one row of bookmark toolbar. This extension allows you to have multiple rows of bookmark toolbar. (You can download and install this extension from Firefox Addon Website.)

2) Tab Kit: Tabbed browsing enables you to open many webpages in a single windowusing tabs (something like, sub windows). This means that instead of opening Firefox windows for each new page, you can use tabbed browsing to open all pages in just one window. The problem with this is if you have many tabs open at the same time it can extend beyond the size of your monitor. This extension is the solution to this problem. It does exactly the same to tabs, what Multirow extension does it for bookmark toolbar. It adds multiple rows of the tabs, so that you can see all the tabbed pages right on the monitor. You can easily switch between the tabs. This means a faster browsing experience.

3) Profile Switcher: If you use firefox for different functionality , like Photo and video sharing, downloads, social bookmarking, web development etc. You may have many addons installed in the firefox. If you have many extension, it affects the performance of firefox. You may not use this features every day, you need them every once in a while. That?s where profile switcher comes handy. You can make different profiles for each different category, and install the addons only in that profile. Profile switcher extension allows you to create and switch between two profiles very easy. You can also open multiple profiles of firefox at the same time! Try this extension, you will surely like it. (This Addon is not available in firefox addon database; you need to search for the ?Firefox Profile Switcher? in Google!)

4) Quick Restart: This extension allows you to restart firefox while maintaining all its tabs. There are times when you need to restart firefox after some installation, but you don?t want to loose all your opened webpages,this extension is what you need. It will maintain all the webpages as it is after the restart.

5) Snap link Plus: This addon allow you to open multiple links by selecting the area using right mouse button. It can be very useful when you are doing some research on google or yahoo and need to open several search results. This addon can open multiple links with just one selection!
