Small, Fast, Clean, and FREE PDF Reader for Everyday Use

Foxit Reader is a free lightweight PDF reader. It's also great in combination with Firefox's PDF Download extension.

Session Manager extension also good :)

I also like the Session Manager extension. You can save a whole browsing session and give it a name. It doesn't actually store pages like ScrapBook, it just stores the URL's so it can open up the tabs again just the way you had them. Handy if for example you're investigating something and want to continue later. It also auto-saves and will restore the firefox state (all windows and tabs) after a crash https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/2324/

ScrapBook extension for Firefox fantastic

I've only used it briefly, but it's already looking amazing, and I reckon I'll be using it plenty more. You can save web pages and bits of pages including pics or whatever just by dragging the stuff over to the scrapbook Sidebar (Sidebar is the thing on the left where you view History and Favourites) So anyway, I recommend checking it out. :)) https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/427/
