Browser Tool

**grim** · Jan 28th, 2007, 11:35 am

Does anyone have a suggestion for a IE browser addon for showing page rank other than googles toolbar? Ever since the most recent updates my notebook will not play nice with it, nothing but problems. I get memory errors, need to reboot, unable to scroll and the list goes on. I even had Dell replace my notebook and it still does it with googles toolbar!

I had it installed for a few days again but just got rid of it again because yet again it started acting up on my notebook!

Hey Grim ... I was getting something similar - mine would just freeze or the page would load extremely slow. I changed to Firefox and there is a PR plugin you can install.

I tried the firefox pr plugin, it never not once worked for me.

maybe google just hates me

Hey I just came across this one, I've never used it so don't blame me if it totally sucks :-)

Thank you, it's worth a shot

Just installed, but from what I see, it does not give you the pr by number, but by a sliding bar, which is a bit hard to figure out.

I got rid of it because it kept crashing on me.

Has yet to crash on me.
But basically 90% of the toolbar is useless to me.
THe other 10%, I can go directly to alexa, etc to get the info I would want.
So dumping it to recapture the lost space used by the toolbar.

Ajax based new post notification, pagerank bar, backlinks, alexa rank, forum news update, search bar, and what else??

My Google toolbar wont show anymore. I even reinstalled it the other day and it still isn't there. I am glad I have firefox Search Status working.
