Do you hate how, when you have a bunch of tabs open in Firefox, they scroll off the tab bar with right and left arrows?
To fix this, in the address bar type in 'about:config' without the quotes and hit enter. Scroll down until you see 'browser.tabs.tabMinWidth'. Double-click the number to the right of this, put in 0, and click OK.
When you restart your browser, it will no longer do that.

Under the Format menu, select Conditional Formatting.
Firefox 2 has a great built-in session manager, which I've become a big fan of. You can easily bring closed tabs back from the dead with this keyboard shortcut: Ctrl-Shift-T
Since Ctrl-T creates a new tab, this makes this keyboard shortcut easy to remember. It works great, espcially when I close the tab next to the one I intended to close.
