HxD MooMenu
This module requires alterations to make it compatible with all browsers, but not much. It is definitely better than anything else I tried.

Fixes:
Set you Z-Index to a high number on the li li styles. This way it drops-down above everything else.

Also, if you use flash, add the param:
this will fix the problem of the drop-down going behind flash.

For the folks complaining about ie6, if folks still use ie6, too bad. You should install a script informing them to upgrade. You can't cater to everyone. ie6 needs to be put to bed. the ie7 issues are easy CSS fixes.

Thank you for a good mootools menu module. If I make significant improvements to your module I will submit them to you (or post them in the JED if I don't hear back).

Modules Anywhere
This plugin is great! It should be included in the v1.6 release!

I hate when my client requests a new page with a unique menu in a unique position that requires me to add new code to my template index.php file. Why have to alter all that code for one stinkin' page?

This extension simplifies the entire process. I strongly endorse the download of this plugin!

Estate Agent  Improved
If you are looking for a cheap alternative to other Real Estate solutions this is a good choice.

However, if your developer knowledge is somewhat lacking, I warn you that customizing this component is not a quick process. For me it was no problem customizing, however I can see it being a problem for some.

I did not give this a 5 star review because I strongly believe that if you charge for a GPL product, you should only do so when the product is highly polished leaving little work for the paying end-user.

That said, I strongly recommend this product to anyone needing a Real Estate Solution due to it's good Admin section and ease of use once you have it fully customized to your liking.

CB Captcha Plugin
Before I installed this plugin for CB, I spent 15 minutes every morning blocking spambot IP addresses from accessing my Web site.

No More SpamBots!!! yay! Now I can focus on defending against hackers and real human spammers and not waste time on the cumbersome SpamBots.

Thanks!
This is exactly what you need to not only boost you Google ranking, but to properly label your pages and keep the site name on all pages.

This plugin works with sh404SEF unlike other plugins of this type. All you have to do is disable the meta rewrite option in your sh404sef configuration.

I highly recommend this plugin to all and think Joomla should incorporate it into their core package.

Module for Admin user access (backend)
When you have multiple folks accessing the administration section and they have the capability to destroy the entire Web site with a few clicks, this module becomes important.

I created user groups and control levels only allowing specific users access to specific components of the Administrator.

Recommend A++
Admin-User-Access (pro)
I manage a Web site with that is in-part maintained by lower-level employees. I simply do not trust them with access to the Back-end when they can destroy the entire Web site within a few clicks.

This component prevents this from happening because my users are now only allowed to access specific components I assign to them.

I recommend this component A++
JCE
It is very important to be able to manage what users can and cannot style when writing an article, this allows it to happen. Users will no longer make my pages looks sloppy by adding weird fonts and styles.

The spell check feature is also very nice.
