lol awesome that you missed the entire previous post in your rush to perform your trolling   Good job, Helen Keller!

I love how no one here has any idea what trolling is.

"O HAI GAIS, LET'S TELL PEOPLE NOT TO USE AN OPEN SOURCE BROWSER EXTENSION BECAUSE THE CREATOR MIGHT, JUST MIGHT, ADD A LINE OF CODE (TO HIS OPEN SOURCE CODE) THAT SENDS YOUR BITCOINS TO ANOTHER ADDRESS. LOLOLOLOLOL, I TELL YA, IT'LL BE AWESOME." -- bitcoinminer

Seriously, it's a tiny freakin' script that can't automatically update itself. If you're that worried, it's OPEN SOURCE! You can check the code yourself before downloading an update, or simply NOT DOWNLOAD IT.

Jesus christ, people really do take every opportunity they can to bash things, don't they?

There's a difference between being careful and spreading FUD.

This discussion are pretty much useless, because you always have to trust that the things you download isn't malicious. The only thing you can do to make sure it's safe is to check the code, or send a small donation to someone (like 0.000001BTC) after each update and confirm in the client that it goes to the address you specified and nothing else.

My addon is also open source and the code is viewable on both github (https://github.com/galaxyAbstractor/FireCoin/blob/master/chrome/content/firecoin/firecoinOverlay.js) and on AMO (Firefox addons site). (Yes, I do have an option to send 5% to me, but it is disabled by default and will only be sent if the user checks the checkbox. Also, I don't believe you can send btc to someone by mistake which was suggested by someone over me, as you have to fill in the amount to send, and the dialog states which bitcoin address it's going to)

You understand it is because of the user who released this already has a lot of negativity going his way?

Hell, people on Reddit were onto him early on because of this https://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=21527.0 lol

I understand that, but:

1. It is my opinion that a lot of the negativity is unjustified.
2. This stuff isn't relevant to the quality of his code.

Yeah, I'd suggest not bashing something you clearly haven't tried. Everything feels more convenient with Bitcoin Tool installed. I don't use the Send BTC feature, but simply clicking an address to view it in Block Explorer is really convenient, and being able to select it with the click of a button. And yes, one single click is actually a lot faster than highlight, CTRL + C, CTRL + V, and also much more reliable, since when you do it manually you may accidentally highlight additional characters.

Just try it out. Who cares who made it? A good extension is a good extension.

Because it's the same paranoia that keeps me from installing nonsense program/games/drivers on my PC :-)  It's nothing against you personally, I just don't want to see all the posts about people losing bitcoins because they installed a hacked version of your script.
