Not mentioned yet : "Forget me not" for dealing with cookies. Needs a bit of configuration for it to work like I want to but I like it a lot. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/forget_me_not though https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cookie-autodelete might do the same for you. And I use different FF profiles for different things (e.g. regular browsing vs. on-line shopping), with different add-ons, which is a bit of a hassle, but it allows me to not have just one browser finger print. Of course I hope that more people will start to do that, so that I won't create a unique real life finger print, and having to be careful to say i r l that I use different FF profiles, because I will be recognized immediately :)
