Hey Dan,
Sorry to put this here, I didn't know how else to con tact you. This is just an FYI in case you didn't know. Since you wrote that Alexa PDF and all, it's important to know that the toolbar is not currently compatible with Windows Vista.
Speaking of the eBook, did the final version come out? |

Dennis, thanks for the heads up. And, yes, the product is finished (including an audio version). I'm releasing it next week in tandem with another product that will help on the resale rights front.

Awesome, thanks Dan. I'll be looking for the email.
I'll be in touch again, probably soon regarding Better Text Ads. I'm seriously considering giving up AdSense altogether and in search of better alternatives.
Side Question: Do you have any personal knowledge of how long it might take to compatiblies (is that even a word?) a toolbar. |

Dennis, I think the problem is that Alexa is still considered spyware by Windows Defender (Microsoft's anti-spyware product). Defender is installed by default on Windows Vista machines and so Alexa is either blocked or hobbled. The SearchStatus addon for Firefox should still work fine, though.

| Well that's irritating. On my XP machine, defender labeled it as spyware but at least gave me the option to keep or delete. |
