What is the highest Firefox version that supports my favourite plugins ?
I marked the 4 plugins I will not relinquish even if they are no longer available in higher versions. That case I will not update. OR, what substitution is available instead of them ?
Anyway, all info I have about Fox plugins that my favs are no longer supported, new versions are coming out more and more often, and this ruins plugin compatibility. I have no specific detailed info, neither have time digging in mozilla forums or support pages for hours. I rarely found useful info there in the past.
I'd like someone who spends 12 hours a day here to post corresponding links.
Thank you.

The extension (not plugin) Tab Kit appears to have been abandoned by its original developer, John Mellor (Jomel), and has not been update for compatibility beyond Firefox 3.6.x.
Another developer, PikachuEXE, has taken Tab Kit forward and renamed it TabKit 2nd Edition.
- TabKit 2nd Edition --> https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tabkit-2nd-edition/
- The Add-on has been "preliminarily reviewed by Mozilla". Read what that means here --> https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/faq#preliminary
- There have apparently been some issues with TabKit 2nd Edition, some of which have been corrected. You can read those on the developer's page below on the "Issues" tab. That is where you will report any issues that you might find with the Add-on.
- the new developer's home page --> https://code.google.com/p/tabkit-2nd-edition/

adblock plus, auto former & tinyeye work fine with the latest firefox 12
tab kit won't work - i don't know what you are using it for exactly, but there is tab mix plus that allows you to tweak tab settings in lots of different ways and colorful tabs for colorful tabs ;-)
since firefox 10 the addon compatibility system has changed to match the new rapid release cycle - so those addons will still be working after each update.
