I really want to know wat are those extensions everyone talking about...And wat are they used for?..can someone give some examples to undestand about it?

These things are add-ons to FF, they are optional components that can be installed so that it enhances the browser's capablities.

For eg. Adblock Plus. As soon as I hear the term Firefox Add-on, it's this that comes to my mind first. Very useful, but some people(very few) may consider it unethical.

^^yup Adblock Plus is a must have!! so is flash block

and yeah use Piclens {i think they've changed the name now... not sure what the new name is } if you want some eye candy
