Must have security Addons for Firefox

Mozilla Firefox is the second most used browser next to Internet Explorer. Firefox has many advantages over  IE and the main advantage is the way it surfs the internet. It has many security features that IE lacks and most important are the free addons that are developed by Mozilla Community. Though IE also has this type of addons, many of them are not  free. This is where Firefox beats IE. Firefox offers good safety while you surf without compromising the speed at which page loads and the system memory. So its time for IE users to shift to Firefox (my personal recommendation).
