Viral Threat Level Description

A Firefox add-on that will inform you of the current threat level of the internet. Viral Threat Level will show a small image in the Firefox status bar, the image is intended to inform you of the current threat level of the internet.Threats could be anything from email viruses to vulnerabilities in your operating system, so I have added a menu item that will take you to a page with details of why it is at that level and what you can do to protect yourself.I have also added a second menu item that will refresh the image to the latest status, although the image will refresh every 15 minutes anyway.I do recommend that you have all the latest security patches for your OS installed, and the latest definitions for your virus scanner regardless of what the threat level is. Note: The Viral Threat Level add-on is cross-platform and it works on Mac OS X, Windows and Linux. Requirements: · Firefox 1.5 or later What's New in This Release: · Now compatible with Mozilla Thunderbird 2+. · Added option to allow you to configure whether the statusbar image flashes on updates. · Added an option to play a sound when an update occurs (disabled by default). · Updated the layout of the options, now uses tabs which should be better in lower resolutions. · Added locale information, French (fr-FR) is 95% complete, thanks to Goofy. · Added locale information, Spanish (es-ES) is 100% complete, thanks to Proyecto Nave. · Added locale information, Turkish (tr-TR) is 100% complete, thanks to Ersen Yoldac. · Added locale information, English (en-GB) is 100% complete. · Updated locale information, Dutch (nl-NL) is now 100% complete, thanks to markh. · Updated the link to the support forums, VTL now has a dedicated forum not just a single thread. · Fixed status getting stuck on extreme if the update failed. · Fixed the elevated level image from jumping during update. · Fixed users being allowed to not select any sites for the update source, this would cause VTL to not show a status, at least one site is required (if you have deselected everything in a previous version then you will need to open options and select at least one site).
