Switchproxy is one of my favourite firefox extensions. Unfortunately it hasn’t been updated for firefox 2. It works though - just a version check, and someone has hacked the installer.
I’ve put a local mirrored copy here.
Update: I wish someone would do the same for Diggler - looks like there is a replacement called Diggidig.
Update 2: You can bypass firefox version extension checking, details here.
Update 3: 10th November ‘06 - Blimey 7000 downloads and counting!
Update 4: I see a sanctioned release of SwitchProxy that works with FireFox 2 is out: 1.4.1
Update 5: Someone has hacked SwitchProxy for Firefox 3 - here’s a local mirror of their XPI file

Another blog post on a World of Warcraft addict quitting.
I like this comment:
“I have been in the MMO world for about 2 years now and I have seen many cases like yours. I can’t really see how it can be such an issue. And time? LOL 70+days lol you oughta play Lineage 2. I personally have played over 5000+ hours on Lineage 2 and guess what I got tired of it finally. I started WoW last week. I see no repercussions. I went to college , did my homework, got my degree (cum laude) , and got a job.
Now I make a very respectable amount of money and play WoW in my spare time. OH wait I have a lot of freaking spare time. No wife, no kids, 23 with a bomb job. My profile are the type of people that should be playing video games. Not people with families, not people that have serious courtships going on, etc.”
You won’t be getting a wife or even a girlfriend with a life like that.
