Firefox Extension For SEOs -- Need testers

    This is my first Firefox extension.

    http://www.webmasterbrain.com/seo-tools/firefox-extensions/seo-links/

    What it does: It shows the Google, Yahoo, MSN link popularity and rank statistics of any link you hover in Firefox.

    If anyone notcies any bugs, it would be cool if you could post what version of Firefox you are using (you can check under Help -> About) and describe the bug so I can fix it up. Thanks.

    When you move your mouse away from the link, I think the popup should go away. Otherwise, great so far. I like it.

    Hmm. It quickly becomes more trouble than benefit, though. I have a suggestion which would solve that. Make an option (on an options dialog) that will only show the popup while holding Ctrl and hovering over the link.

    Originally it did but it felt awkward having to hold the mouse while the stats update. I guess I could add a user preference.

    Wow. That's actually a really good idea.

    BTW, you can toggle it on/off by clicking the coloured ball icon in statusbar, but your suggestion is better.

    VERY interesting tool/extension - ditto other comments about providing user choice for the configuration.
