Download Embedded

Version: 0.4

Tiny and quiet!

Pros: Explaining a bit more about this extension than the publisher does - basically it's a compact little extension that shows up in the form of a little red down arrow on your status bar when it detects imbedded items on a page. If you hit the arrow, you can download the embedded items - hence the name. Other than that it doesn't disrupt your browsing and takes up no space on the status bar which is why I use it as my download manager for imbedded items rather than Amazing Media Browser, which has more features (it's on addons.mozilla.com don't know about here), but takes up more space in my memory and status bar.

Tweak UI

Version: 1.33

Excellent - but only for more advanced users.

Pros: Extra customization to just about everything in Windows, but mainly to things like mouse, menus, and desktop, also, great log on, log off options for convenience or privacy, and a built-in repair function for some of the things you can mess up like your desktop icons, temporary internet files, and REGEDIT.

Cons: This would be even better and more popular if it could also give novice computer users some more information on each function. Maybe when mouse hovers over an option, an explanation appears, or anything to show people what each thing can do.

CCleaner

Version: 1.30.310

Works well, nice integration!

Pros: Cleans up your computer for free and quickly. Also, when installing, you can choose not to create an icon or start menu folder, and can add 'open CCleaner' and 'run CCleaner' to the right-click menu of the recycle bin, basically integrating it into your recycle bin so when you go to empty it, instead you can completely clean your computer.

IrfanView

Version: 3.98

Fun to play around with.

Pros: Mess around with your favorite pictures with the effects like pixelize and solarize or get serious and fix up some pics from vacation. All the goodies like sharpen, crop, and red-eye editing. Nice free replacement of a big time image editor for someone who does a little amateur work with pictures but doesn't need a lot of features.

Cons: Could use a bit bigger effects library but does cover the basics.
