Whats the best add-on for a download accelerator and one for a bittorrent downloader?
Also, what are some good ones in general? I have just started using firefox and love the add-on feature.
And im using 3.5 so the add-ons need to work with that.

Xmarks is awesome like spartanstew said. Love it.

Other ones I use are....

IETab (for those pesky pages that wont' work in Firefox)
Adblock Plus

Definitely use adblock plus.
I like doing my torrents outside of Firefox, with utorrent.
It can be configured to automatically handle the torrent files when the links are clicked in Firefox.

Tab Mix Plus (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1122)

All-in-One Sidebar (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1027)

Both are must-haves for me. Also:

TreeStyleTab (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5890) - Now that all my monitors are widescreen I also love this extension, as it moves the tabs to a vertical bar at the left or right and frees up space at the top of the browser

xmarks is mainly all I use.

I dont like lots of addons, tends to slow things down.
