    I am not currently using it. Does anyone else like it? Is it worthwhile?

    Never bothered with it although I do check Alexa from time to time just for fun. I only use the google tool bar.

    no. Although I've heard that doing so will help boost your alexa rating just by visiting your own sites... truth? I don't know. Alexa is kinda pointless... IMO.

    Do not want. ;)

    It's IE only, and using Internet Explorer is like... asking to be shot.

    I do have it installed in IE.

    But I don't use IE much. I use firefox for browsing the net and when alexa or some research is needed then only I use IE for that purposes.

    I have it installed in IE as well, but I rarely use IE, I always use FF for browsing purposes.

    Does using this extension affect Alexa statistics (like as if the Alexa toolbar is installed), or is it just a way to view stats from your FF browser?

    Am using that for the last 4 years or so... now I cant browse without it... coz i just want to see the ranking of all sites which am browsing..

    Also somebody tell me whether ther is any tool available to show the rankings from alexa in IE without using that tool bar.

    Yeah, but then when I ran spybot, it uninstalled it for me.
    It's pretty much pointless. lol
