Just in time for Firefox 3 [Download Day][1], [Interclue Ltd][2] releases version 1.5.6 of it's flagship browser addon, with full Firefox 3 support, new warnings for links to malware and phishing sites, a more compact and usable status bar menu, and many other improvements over the previous release, which was installed by over 120,000 Firefox users, fully one third of them using pre-release versions of Firefox 3, thus ensuring that Interclue and Firefox 3 are a well proven combination for faster and more productive web-surfing.

#### New Features in 1.5.6

* Potential "Phishing" Site Warnings
* Potential Malware Distribution Site Warnings (Firefox 3 only)
* Auto-correction of (some) broken link URLs: (e.g. http://http://stuff.com is converted to http://stuff.com)

#### Tweaks:

![][4]

* Interclue status bar menu is now more compact and easier to use.
* Further improvements in the Linkclue positioning logic. In Firefox 3, it's almost perfect. In Firefox 2 there are still one or two sites where the Linkclue icons will appear somewhere odd after you mouseover the link.
* Reduced excess whitespace appearing in some summaries.
* The [TurboNote+][5] button will now be enabled by default if TurboNote+ is installed.
* Improved summaries for links to video.google.com
* Pinned-mode activation hotkey now off by default - most people don't use it and it was irritating when activated accidentaly.

#### Bug Fixes:

* The Zoom bug got fixed in Firefox 3rc2+. Users with Firefox 3rc2+ should be able to use previews on zoomed pages again.
* Fixed previews for washingtonpost.com (their server responds with unusual content-type, which we now look for)
* Fixed a problem with "403: Forbidden" error messages being cached.
