What are the best addons to use in firefox for secuirty...currently im using no script and web of trust

Also i want an anonymizer...is switchproxy the best way to do this or is there a better add on..also since info goes through the proxy why isnt this less safe since your info travels thrugh another souce?


Thanks

Edit: I found this site proxify.com...its working nice and it does all the work...I have one me ?...whats a good proxy program i can dl that does it for me automatically

NoScript, Flashblock(if you hate flash), Adblock Plus.

My Addon's:


Adblock Plus

DownThemAll!
Fast Dial
FEBE (backup firefox)
Fire.fm
Firefox Showcase
Fission (safarie bar)
Flagfox
Flashgot (will download any movie ANY SITE!)
GooglePreview

Smart Bookmarks Bar
StumbleUpon
Stylish

Hi there Dutch,

Just as possible references and resources, a few of the Firefox security additions I use are:

Flashblock: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/433
Adblock Plus: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1865
Stealther:https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1306
Panic: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6367
Sxipper:https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4865

A bit of variety in additions, but hopefully helpful.

Have a good weekend all!
