a toolbar that shows info about the site your currently looking at and blocks any known phishing sites

Heya Skor,

I use Firefox 1.04 and for some reason when I go to Netcraft's site to get the toolbar I cannot get it downloaded correctly. For IE it will let me download and save a standard looking file but with Firefox it just download a .xpi file. What am I doing wrong here?

well it won't dload it because firefox, unlike IE, prevents anything from being added to the browser...so what happens is that you click the button for firefox, and a bar will come up near the top of the browser (right below the toolbars) saying it blocked it, but there's a button that comes up that says "options" (or something like that) ...click that button and then allow netcraft to be added, then click the original button again for the dload and you'll be all set

Thanks for the help Skor, that was easy.
