Do you have a problem remembering all those passwords from different social networks and websites that you visit daily. Assuming that you aren’t an psychotic alien, you won’t remember each and every password thats why we use Firefox’s built in password manger lets you save your entered user ids and passwords and retrieve them later when you visit that particular website thus make it whole lot easier to login.
But for some reason Firefox tends to corrupt itself and thus I normally end up loosing all those credentials, thus i have to meticulously enter each of them again and again. Password Export, a Firefox addon, is a useful addon that lets you export your saved passwords or say back them up, so that you can retrieve them later.

Most of the content driven websites like hardware reviews, tutorials and support sites features PDF version of the articles. When ever you click on any pdf link most probably Adobe’s Acrobat Reader will run inside Firefox which does all sorts of crazy things with it. What about downloading the pdf rather then letting Acrobat reader open it.
PDF Download solves the problems everyone has about handling PDF files with Firefox. With this extension, each time you click on a link, it checks the link for any pdf file and in this case let you choose what you want to do. You can either open pdf file inside or outside Firefox, or download it to the file system or view it as HTML.
Note PDF Download is not a PDF plugin, you’ll still need to have Adobe or the FoxIt PDF plugin if you want to open a PDF inside Firefox.
