Hello everyone,

We've developed a new search feature for the Firefox browser. You can
see a short demo of us using this on Google here:
http://www.visual-search.net/Visual%20Search%202/Visual%20Search%202.html

You can download the extension on this page:
http://www.visual-search.net

or on the Firefox addons page:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5309

I hope everyone in the Google community likes this as much as we do!

I know that legit offers are NEVER posted via gmail / google groups -
#1 source (95+%) of all trolling, scams & newsgroup spam.

And, while you're at it, take your enormous brain over to
<http://google.com/coop/cse/> and <http://code.google.com/> to see what's up
in general, and maybe recognize that you're basically full of shit.

You really ought to tender an apology to the OP.

Clearly you don't know anything about Firefox extensions. They have
to be thoroughly reviewed by expert developers at Firefox who check
for anything people might not want on their computers and anything
submitted that does have any sneaky stuff in it is promptly rejected.

I'll admit I'm not an expert on Firefox, but it's widely known that spam via gmail / google groups has a very significant chance of being nothing but potential problems. It's easily the #1 source of newsgroup scams.

I'll repeat - NO LEGIT offer is ever made via google groups spam.

The Internet Explorer version is now available on our site. It works
for XP and previous, a Vista version is currently under construction.

Why do I need your site when mozilla offers it and I know I will not
get spyware or viruses there?

Certainly, that is a good idea. Unfortunately, Microsoft doesn't
offer the same. My web site link is mostly for the IE people.

My computer came with IE has the default browser. I used it to get to
mozilla where I downloaded their browser.

I would agree that having Firefox available on your computer is a good
idea. After submitting my first extension to them I learned first
hand that they take security very seriously. Which is why I use it
much more now than I used too.

IE7 copied Firefox's idea of a search bar in the corner, and you can
add google.

I suppose you could add the google toolbar on explorer too if you
wanted to.
