    Thank you for the feedback rusticdog. I'm sorry but i won't be perservering any further with it at this stage, due to other commitments. I hope you can eliminate the javascripting and other few bugs i encountered.

    If you can fire me the details of the error, then absolutely, otherwise we've got no idea what the problem is :)

    Ultimately this depends on the beta testing, and how many problems there are....if any. I would think that second week of August we'd have a stable version that will be released to public. And yes, there will be the same free version as in IE.

    To be honest i can't really tell you much more than what i posted earlier

    Popup blocker needs to be switched OFF to be able to click on site information for more details

    Javascript required for bad site reporting. Having javascript switched on is one of the last things needed if you visit a new site which may unknowingly, to the surfer, have exploits on it.

    Inability to quickly and easily toggle sitehound on or off

    Many sites slipped through the net

    Well as above really, most popupblockers don't need to be disabled, they generally have whitelist options or ways to open popups (such as CTRL + click)

    my bad....I thought you were having specific errors reporting URLs, not that javascript was off.
    Easy fix is to add sitehoud.com into trusted zone and allow scripting for trusted sites.

    If we added this, we may as well remove the blocking of adult sites...or password protect the option....which no longer makes it easy toggle, users will forget passwords etc...means password recovery or uninstall/reinstall....certainly worth the thought though, something we'll look at

    It's always improving, and had the scripting not been an issue the report button would have worked too :)


    Also in regards to the FF version, I stuffed up my dates, delivery date for the beta is actually the 11th August....
