Thanks for the illuminating information! There were a few tools there that i didnt know about! However, you failed to mention <a href="http://www.gwebs.com/mailcloak.html" rel="nofollow">MailCloak for Webmail</a>, a firefox plugin which does GnuPG for your email - encrypting your email with the strongest open source encryption available! MailCloak is still in private beta, but there is a lot of useful info on <a href="http://www.gwebs.com" rel="nofollow">Global Web Security's website.</a> Hey, Great post.

No Script is the best and can handle all the javascripts with ease. Making it the best security Add-on. CS Lite, SafeCache and Safe History aren't that necessary. The default Cache, History and Cookies functions of Firefox are enough. Password Hasher can be useful for generating password, but once again Saving Passwords is default function of Firefox with is good. Besides security, MozBackup a free software is must for all Firefox users. It not backups your Bookmarks, Passwords and Mozilla Settings making it easy to get your firefox saved settings back if you format your System. Nice Post.
