Browser addons, extensions, and userscripts.

4chan X, a userscript for that makes various tasks easier and faster, like dumping directories of images, reporting posts, hiding threads, in-page image loading, ect. It also watches threads for new bumps and is very light on your system. Since it’s a script you can tweak it however you want. People have also talked about re-writing it to work with sites other than 4chan. My personal favourite. But you can find more userscripts for 4chan here.
4chan Firefox Addon, pretty much does what 4chan X does but is a bit heavier and has a right-click menu that lets you navigate 4chans boards.
4chan Chrome Addon, same thing as the 4chan Firefox Extension but for SRWare Iron and Google Chrome.

Other useful software and tools, both to install on your computer, or run from the web.
