Yup, I have that extension installed as well; it's great.
Also, for those of us that are using Firefox:
You can manually make a backup of all your extensions, bookmarks, settings, and everything else very easily. Here's how:
1. Shut down Firefox completely.
2. Locate your FF profiles folder (the default path is usually: C:\Documents and Settings\[Your Windows Username]\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\ )
3. Save a copy of your Profiles folder (as well as the "Profiles.ini" file) to a safe place (separate drive, disk, etc.)
Now if anything should happen to your system or to Firefox and you have to completely reinstall Firefox, after installation go back to Firefox Profiles location (see above for default location) and replace the new Profiles folder and Profiles.ini file with your backed up version.
note: In order to see the "Application Data" folder, you may have to open Control Panel->Folder Options, click on the "View" tab, and select "Show hidden files and folders".
