Our new Firefox security-extension uses Google for spyware check
We released the Firefox security extension ‘Check Page for Shit‘ that uses Google to detect spyware, adware and other malware. No need spyware removal software, because the extension checks if a webpage contains spyware before loading. If spyware was found, you’ll get a link to Google’s warning page instead of one to the dangerous page.
Attention, I don’t recommend doing it, but if you still want to surf the dangerous site, click an appropriate link on Google’s warning page. Yyou won’t see warnings for some time. Besides, you can switch on/off the extension anytime by clicking its’ icon in status bar.
In most cases you won’t need a spyware remover - Google protects you from loading dangerous sites with spyware and adware!
Feature requests and bug fixes send to webmaster@checkpageforshit.com or comment me in this entry.

Help me please…
I just installed Firefox 2.0, and all of a sudden, my username/password isn't being inserted in the signon window (it always was before). I tried the usual suspects–I did not mistakenly tell FF not to remember the password for this site; and I also tried the remember password bookmarklet, but all to no avail–FF will not ask me to remember this password. What do I need to do to get around this?
