    I just installed it and is really quiet good. - not just the adsense but news (realated to what you've been surfing) history links...the only problem is if you don't have google desktop search already installed it indexes your system. This can take a while on big drives.

    Can anyone else get this a working? After I install the google desktop, everything is fine, after I install the plugin and input my userid and password for adsense, it keeps giving me a connection error. Then when I restart my pc it automatically uninstalls itself.

    EDIT, got it working, but what is correct? My adsense toolbar shows about a buck more than the page itself along with higher clicks, impressions, etc...

    How did you get it working? Mine gets the connection error every time I refresh. I have to re-input the password to get it to work.

    Is it because my system isn't fully indexed yet?

    Different update settings, like Google IG does with RSS feeds? You're saying the Google Desktop updates/syncs slower than the toolbar?

    Actually, I just uninstalled it, the software should of been developed a little better before releasing it. It took about 3 hours to get it running without the connection error. Had it running for about an hour, PC froze, had to restart the desktop and now I'm getting connection error again. When I did have it installed, didn't update at all. Had to manually close the desktop and restart to see how much more I had made ;)

    I had it running right out of the box, 2 hours later, connection error. I'm having the same error suddenly with SySense as well, so maybe it's an API change of sorts, and not just these two programs or ME. :)

    Yeah I am now seeing a problem with my firefox extension not reporting any information. Does seem like there is a relationship between the two.

    That stinks-sorry about all the connection errors. You have to realize it's only a beta release though.

    It's not only the plugin, none of my monitors work currently.
