Lazarus, An Add-on YOU MUST USE!

Let me get this straight. I talked about this golden Add-on back in 2010 and now I am going to talk about it again. Today, I got an update for Lazarus which makes it compatible with FF4 and also makes it much faster and better. So, I e-mailed them because the development team resides in New Zealand.
Hi James,
Thanks for the kind thoughts. And I totally understand that not everyone is in a position to donate. If you can't then we generally ask people to tell lots of other people about Lazarus, but it looks like your already doing that.
So thanks for all the wonderful press.
Best of luck,
Karl

I didn't lie about the money issue and I did advertise about them on Totse.info. So, I am going to advertise about them again but I think it's mandatory for anyone using Totse.info to have this add-on installed. Basically it lets you keep everything you TYPE on forums saved in a local database which can be accessed any time from Firefox, plus you get instant form/thread/post recovery options. I have been using this product for over a year now and I love it. It's stable and reliable and highly recommended.
What's new in Lazarus 2.1.1?
- It's now fully compatible with Firefox 4!
- We changed the encryption algorithms to use heavily optimised javascript, meaning Lazarus will work on all operating systems that Firefox works on, rather than just the big three.
- We added an option to detect and replace credit card numbers, thus increasing your privacy.
- To improve performance, we set it up to clean the database once per day after 5 minutes of inactivity
- Lazarus now shows a "saving form" icon badge in the statusbar whenever a form is saved.
- Set the default form expiry time to 4 weeks, again for performance reasons.
- Put in a CSS fix to remove forms textbox and dropdown
- Removed all the background threaded code (Firefox 4 really doesn't seem to like it)
- Removed some unused legacy code.

I am telling you guys, this Add-on is a rare gem.

It's a privacy thing for me, I suppose. Otherwise, I loved it!
First japs now...japs again?
fuck donating.
Go to the options and just clear the database or remove empty records.
Cool, I'm a bit weary of my privacy like trx, not that I always do all I can to protect myself.
This sounds like a keylogger that you control, there must be a way to gain access to the logs which worries me.
I would also probably not be very good about clearing the cache frequently...
I definitely see the potential use for this sort of program, I don't think its for me though. Thanks for sharing regardless.
Oh, and by the way, an upcoming release of vbulletin will feature ckeditor which has autosave functionality for posting
What are you typing that you dont want
others to seE?
No it's common knowledge ( 8 times a day, 10 on Sundays )
Firefox does not crash so much for me. If I get a page jump, I go back and my shit I typed is there. No major problems.
Sounds like I would have to turn it on and off depending on what I am doing.
Sounds like it would be a hot target for someone to send a worm into
5% of interneters use adequate protection. For the most part, some here have their heads screwed on, but would you recomend something that could potentially fuck over 19 out of 20 people?
Sure, its their fault, they should not be so dumb, but you are opening the door to the burglar on this one...
