This is a pretty cool toolbar and its branded with WPlanet. If you use this on internet explorer, it will support the site in rankings:

The Alexa Toolbar is a free search and navigation companion that accompanies you as you surf, providing useful information about the sites you visit without interrupting your Web browsing.

* Get rid of those annoying popup ads.
* Search the Web and other resources directly from your toolbar.
* Learn about Web sites including traffic information and contact info.
* Surf more efficiently with Related Links for each page.
* Share opinions about sites with other users.

Sounds pretty cool, Alex. I could put it onto my Internet Explorer the next time I use it, at my parents' consent of course. I use both Firefox and Internet Explorer, since Firefox has lots of protection now with their updated version but it makes certain webpages pop up pretty slow so at times I move to Internet Explorer.

Thank You!! !!
WAY better. I don't like the new 1.5 version, it doesn't block popups and locks up alot, which are the known bugs. I am thinking of going back to 1.0.7 or trying Opera. Same as firefox but it's been around since 1996.

The IT department at work (the only place I'm forced to use Explorer) is totally paranoid. They have alll the systems locked out so we can't install stuff and we can't connect our own systems to the network.
I only get to use a fully functional computer (Emac) when I get home.

They have a point there. I work in the IT department, so I know, although where I work, people in the IT department have more freedom on what to install than people in other departments. Symantec considers the Alexa Toolbar to be spyware. I never install any toolbars on any computer, work or home.
