Is this one of those extensions that pre-loads every link on the page? Ironically, I can't check righ tnow because I'm stuck in IE on a super slow dialup connection, but if it is, I don't use those because they seem to be the online equivalent to parking across two spaces or on the sidewalk to protect your car from dings. Sure, it works, but it creates a hassle for other people.
Namely, there's a bunch of server load that's created and bandwidth thats expended for those servers for stuff you'll never view.
