I must have received betterlinks in the latest firefox upgrade. It is the WORST thing in the world. I pray NO ONE uses it as it simply takes people away from our website - it doesnt even open in a new browser. Probably a great marketing addition for someone to charge for pay per click but I dont want any part of it. I guess I will be giving up using firefox as my browser with this junk on there.

After upgrading to version 6, searches using Google were all screwed up. All results seemed to be Cached and when I clicked on any of them a random web site would come up. Searches using other search engines seemed OK, but they weren't as good as Google. I reinstalled Firefox (twice) but it didn't go away, so I started using IE, which I hate. By chance I went back to Firefox and discovered "Better Links" and as I had no idea what it was, I disabled it. Like magic the search result started working properly. Not only is Better Links a bad idea, it behaves like a virus and nearly made me throw out Firefox for good.
