Tested on the latest firefox including version 3 beta 5. Many have reported it working on ubuntu, mac, vista, xp.

Despite what it says on that page, when i installed it I was informed it is not compatible with Firefox 3.0.1 (which is my current version). I got the same result installing from Jimmy's site and from the mozilla site. No luck. I wish it worked, it sounds very useful. Did anybody get it to work with 3.0.1? - if so please let me know how.
This is a great translator.
I don't know why you do this, but never stop!
You are awesome!!
:)
